1. Welcome to the Class: Whenever there are birthdays around, I personally love to create handmade birthday card. Somehow it feels really amazing whenever there is a handmade element whenever you're gifting someone. It might look difficult to create, but I'm going to make it very easy and simple for you. Hey, every buddy, you're most welcome to my new class, myself, RuwikPl. I'm a self taught, independent artist and an interior designer by profession. I personally love to explore different art forms and styles and not stick to one particular thing. So if you are joining me, you'll find a variety of classes that I create. In this class, we are going to create two beautiful, easy birthday cards based on a black theme using some easy and simple craftwork. We are going to start by understanding all the class projects that we are going to create. There are going to be two beautiful birthday cards having different elements in it. Before we start with the class, we are going to talk about all the art supplies in detail. I'll be giving you the details about the papers that we are going to use. And in case you're missing out on any particular art supply, you'll find it very easily in any nearby local art store. The first step is to create the base of the card, which we are going to do using a black paper. Then to make it look a little bit more aesthetic, we're going to add this beautiful cut out of a white paper. Then the main part is to add a happy birthday tag to the entire card. You're going to use some simple calligraphy to write the message. Then simply I'll be using a double sided tape and create some depth in the entire message. You're going to make the entire birthday tag look a little bit more aesthetic by adding these colored papers in the background. You're going to complete the card by adding little elements like dried flowers. There are going to be these little circular shaped balloons that we are going to create using paper. And I'm very sure that you'll definitely enjoy the entire process. By the end of the class, you'll have two beautiful birthday cards based on a black color scheme. It is not at all compulsory for you to create it in the exact same way. You're free to explore and experiment and enjoy the process of creating. The class is absolutely suited for beginners and also intermediate and advanced level artists can try it. So without any delay, grab your art supplies and join me on this creative journey. 2. Details About the Class Project: Hey, everybody. Now let us talk about the class projects that we are going to create. No need to worry about the output, enjoy the process of creating. I'll be giving you the details about the cards that we are going to create, observe them one by one and carefully follow these steps. So as you can observe, I have placed both the birthday cards on the desk surface. You can observe them carefully. They are having different elements in it. Let me show you one by one. So here is the first card in which we have a beautiful black background. Then I have completed it with these beautiful white paper cutouts that you'll find very easily in any nearby local art store. Then I have added these little golden color patches and the birthday tag, which is having a nice three D effect if you observe it carefully. It's a very simple and easy process to add a depth to the entire birthday tag. Then I have added this beautiful element, which is having dried flowers in it and little hearts using a white pen. So this is how we are going to complete the first card, having these beautiful little elements in it. Now let us talk about the second card. So again, there is going to be a beautiful black background. We have added these nice paper cutouts using white. And it creates a beautiful contrast, as well. There is going to be the beautiful golden color patches, which we are going to add in any particular area. Then there is this birthday tag having a beautiful three defect in it. Now, the major element is the cluster of beautiful balloons that I have created using a white paper and added these white lines combining together to form a beautiful bunch. So this is how we are going to complete the second card, having these minute little elements. It might look difficult to create both the birthday cards, but trust me, it is a very simple and easy process. You just have to follow these steps one by one. You can use the cards to gift your loved ones. In fact, you can also change the purpose of the card by simply changing the message. I hope that you got an exact idea about the class projects that we are going to create. These are two beautiful birthday cards that we are going to create, and it is not at all compulsory for you to create it in the exact same way. You're free to explore and experiment with the entire class project. Now let us move towards the next part. 3. Art Supplies: Hey, everybody. Now let us talk about all the art supplies that you will need for the entire class. I'll be giving you the details about the art supplies one by one. No need to worry about having the exact same art supply. You can go for any other good alternative as well. So as you can observe, I have placed all my art supplies in a systematic manner. Let us talk about them one by one. So here is the first art supply, which is a simple plastic ruler. You can observe the dimensions in 15 centimeters as well. So we're going to use a simple ruler wherever required to draw any reference line. Then the next art supply is a simple eraser that can be used to remove the pencil lines. Then next up, I have a simple scissor. That we are going to use to cut the paper wherever required. So a scissor is going to be really helpful to cut the paper into smaller pieces as well. Then I'm going to use a simple pen, which is also a marker basically from art line. Having a 0.8 tip, you can observe the tip as well. So we're going to use this marker to write a message. Then I'm having this beautiful metallic marker, which is golden. It is absolutely fine. You can use any other good alternative as well. This is going to be visible on a black paper. That's why I'm going to use this. Then I'm having a simple white pen from Sakura jelly roll. You can observe it is having a nice thin tip. We are going to use this to create little elements on the card. Then next up, I'm having a simple pencil, which we are going to use a reference line wherever required. Then the next art supply is a simple liquid glue from favicol. You can use any good alternative. You're going to use this to paste the paper on one another or wherever required. Then now let us talk about the most important art supply, which is the papers that we are going to use. So there are four basic colors that I'm going to use. The first one is black. Then we have white, dark green, and brown. So these are four basic papers required for creating these beautiful birthday cards. In case you want to use any different color, it is absolutely fine. For the white paper, I can give you the details. These are watercolor papers from Canson, 300 GSM and a five size sheet. In case you have a smaller version of this, it is absolutely fine. Then for the brown paper, I'm using Sahara craft papers, which is 170 GSM A five size sheets. The remaining two colors, which is green and black, are regular papers that you will find very easily from any nearby local art store. These are craft papers, basically. Then I'm going to use a simple masking tape, which we are going to use to combine the dried flowers and convert it into a bouquet. Then we are going to use a double sided tape, which is having this beautiful thickness that will give our happy birthday message a nice three D efect. In case you do not have a double sided tape, you can simply use some glue. Then let us talk about this beautiful art supply, which is a beautiful cutout of white paper. You'll find it very easily in any nearby local art store. And in case you do not have this beautiful cutout, you can still take up the class project without this. Now let us talk about this beautiful punching machine that we use to punch in the paper and get this beautiful little circle cutouts. Then the last element that you will need is this dried flowers that we are going to use to convert it into a little bouquet, which we are going to use it as an element in a card. Certain elements like dried flowers that you can observe in this particular card and the white paper cutout, you might not be having it with yourself. So you'll find it very easily in any nearby local art store. Combining these little elements and using all the art supplies together, we are going to form these two beautiful birthday cards. I hope that you got an exact idea about all the art supplies that we are going to use to create these beautiful birthday cards. Now let us move towards the next part. 4. Birthday Card - 1: Hey, everyone. Now let us start with the first birthday card. So as you can observe, I have placed a simple black paper. It's a simple craft paper only. So you'll find it very easily in any nearby local art store. The size is a five, and we are going to convert it into two equal parts. So just place one side of the two corners on another side and just place your finger and thumb and create a simple crease. You can use the way I'm using my fingers. So I have simply matched one side of the corners with another side of the corners. And in the center portion, we have created this simple crease. You can observe there is this line of separation which divides the paper into two equal parts. So these two equal parts are going to be the base of the car. Now if you observe there is a line visible, we are going to cut it using a pair of scissors. Simply hold the paper, and now you have to follow the line. No need to worry at all, do this particular step in a slow and steady manner. Also, be a little bit careful whenever you're using a scissors. Make sure that you follow the line carefully and get a nice straight line so that we get two equal rectangles. So now I have separated both the parts and you can observe we have got two rectangular shapes. These are the base of the two cards that we are going to create. Now I'll just keep one of the part aside, and we are going to use the first one to create our first card. Now the next step is to add this beautiful cutout of white paper in different manner on the base of the card. Let me show you the cut out carefully. There are these beautiful patterns on the outline. You'll find this paper very easily in any nearby local art store. Now we are going to put a semicircular shape on the right hand side of the card. So I'll use a pair of scissors and cut this particular circular shape into two equal parts. So now you can observe approximately, I have removed a semicircular shape, and we're going to place it on the right hand side of the card in between. I'll just align the line with the line of the card. This is how we are going to place one part of the white paper. Now I'll just get a nice quarter of the semicircular part which was remaining. Cut it again into two equal parts, and we get this beautiful one fourth part of the circular shape, and we are going to place it on the corner. So I'm placing it on the top left corner, and this is how we are going to compose both the shapes. I'll be using a little bit of liquid glue on the back side of the paper cut out. Just take a little bit of glue and apply it well because it is having a lot of cuts in it. You just have to apply the glue in a nice manner. No need to hurry at all, apply it in the pattern area as well. Now, once we are done applying the glue, we are going to place it on the black paper. No need to hurry at all, align the straight line with the rectangular straight line on the right hand side, and simply apply some pressure using your thumb. You can observe the paper is completely placed. Now, let it dry for a while. Let us place the corner as well. So again, I'll apply a little bit of glue. No need to hurry at all. Make sure that you apply some good amount of glue so that it gets stuck with the black paper in a nice way. Now, similarly, once you are done, applying the glue on one side of the one fourth cutout, simply flip it over and place it on the corner. Again, no need to hurry at all, take your time, apply some pressure using your thumbs. So now you can observe that we are done placing the white design paper. Now let us create the happy birthday tag. So I'll take a little bit of white paper piece, and we are going to need a simple rectangular shape. You can take it approximately. No need to worry about the measurements. I'm just taking a simple random rectangular piece of paper that you can observe right over here. If you want an approximate size, it is 8 centimeters by 1 centimeter. Now, we are going to write happy birthday on this. So I'll use a simple ruler, create a reference line using a pencil. It's a very simple and easy process. Create a light line in between. Now, this pencil line will help us to write the happy birthday message in a straight manner. I'll be using my marker from art line. You can observe it is having a nice thin tip. You're going to write happy birthday using this particular marker. Now, there is no specific way of writing happy birthday. You can write it according to your convenience. Make sure that you write considering the reference line that we have created using a pencil so that your letters will be completely aligned and it will look straight. So I'm writing happy first. Now, once we are done writing happy, leave a little bit of space in between, and then we are going to write birthday. No need to hurry at all, take your time and write in a slow and steady manner. It is not at all compulsory for you to write in the exact same way. You can write it in your own handwriting. In fact, if you want to experiment with the color, you can use a different color apart from black as well. So I've written birthday as well. Now in order to enhance the letters a little bit, there is a little bit of space between THD Y. You can fill it with solid black color and complete the letters. Now, once we are done writing happy birthday, we are going to enhance the entire birthday tag by adding a little bit of more colored paper. Before that, we are going to create a nice three D effect, as well. Before that, let me enhance the letter H and B as well. Now, once we are done writing the entire text, you'll need a simple double sided tape that we are going to place on the backside of this birthday tag. Let me remove the extra part. So I've just removed a little bit of piece from the birthday tag. Now, if you find that your text is completely fine, you can use a simple eraser to remove the reference line which we have created using a pencil. No need to hurry at all, take your time and simply remove the pencil line. Now I'm going to use your simple double sided tape. Let me show you it is going to have a beautiful thickness in it, which will give our message a nice three day effect. So I'm going to take a little piece of double sided tape, place it on your desk surface. Similarly, take another piece. Now we are going to put both the pieces on the back side of the happy birthday tag. Now you have already observed a nice thickness of the double sided tape. In case you do not have a double sided tape, you can directly use glue and paste it on the second paper. So I'm going to place one piece on right hand side and another piece on the left hand side. There is a little bit of space in between, but it is absolutely fine. Now, once we have attached the double sided tape to the birthday tag, simply remove the back sticker. So now you have stickiness on the back side as well. Now I'm going to take a little piece of dark green paper, which is a little bit bigger than the happy birthday tag. We're going to place it leaving some space from the top and bottom portion and side as well. And we get a beautiful dark green outline around the entire happy birthday tag. There is a little bit of extra portion that you can remove using your scissors. Now you can observe that we have used a double sided tape. That's why the happy birthday message is going to have a little bit of three D effect, which might not be that clearly visible, but it is going to look really beautiful when we use a double sided tape. Now there is going to be another outline that we are going to create using a brown paper. So I've taken a little bit of piece of brown paper. Take your happy birthday tag and apply some glue on the back portion. No need to hurry at all, apply the glue in a nice way. Now, once you have applied the glue, spread it nicely, make sure that you apply it on the corners. Now, simply, we are going to put the birthday tag on the brown paper, leaving some space on the top, bottom, and side portion. So like dark green paper, we are going to get a beautiful brown border as well. Now, once the glue is applied on the backside portion, apply a little bit of pressure using your fingers so that the message gets stuck with the paper completely. You can also let it dry for a while, but I'm not having patience. That's why I'm just cutting it. So I'm leaving a little bit of space and creating this beautiful outline using brown paper. You can observe the way I have created two beautiful outlines apart from white paper. There is this dark green color and brown. I don't know whether you are able to see a beautiful three D effect using a masking tape, double sided tape basically or not, but it looks really nice when you add a little bit of double sided tape into the message. Now, we are going to place it on the birthday card base that we have created. So I'm going to decide that this is the position where we are going to place it. You can place it according to your convenience. It is absolutely fine. So now just take the birthday tag, flip it over, and we are going to apply some glue on the back inside. No need to hurry at all, apply the glue in a nice way. Now, once you have applied some glue, make sure that you apply the glue on the corners as well. I'll just bring in the card base, and we are going to place the message. No need to hurry at all, take your time and decide the position in a correct manner, leave space from the right hand side and left hand side equally, and apply some pressure using your fingers. So this is how we have placed the entire happy birthday message on the card base. Now, apart from this, there are going to be certain other elements that we are going to add to the entire card to make it look a little bit more aesthetic and attractive. So there is going to be this beautiful golden marker that I'm going to use. In case you do not have a golden marker, you can use a white marker as well, and we're going to create a little color palette on the bottom portion. So it's a very simple and easy step. You just have to create these little circular shapes. And you can also observe a beautiful contrast between gold and black color together. I'm going to add six dots using this particular golden color. In case you want to add more or less dots, it is absolutely fine. So it basically is a little element that creates some aesthetics to the entire car. Now we are going to add some dried flowers on the top portion of the happy birthday tag. So I'll just apply a little bit of glue on the above portion of the happy birthday tag. No need to hurry at all, apply some good amount of glue. So it's a simple little portion where we are going to apply these little dried flowers. You can observe that the flowers are white, and it is a little bouquet kind of element that I've created using these little flowers together. Now apply some pressure using a tweezer or your fingers. And you'll find these dried flowers very easily in any nearby local art store. Now, let it dry for a while, and I'm going to use a simple white pen to create some little hearts around the bouquet. You just have to create these little heart shape. You can draw the heart shapes. According to your convenience. I'm just creating three little hearts. You can also observe a beautiful contrast between the white and solid black color in the background. So now we are almost done with the entire card. There is going to be this last element, which is going to be the golden color patches on the top right corner. So I'm just using my golden marker and creating these little circular shapes very similar to the ones that we did just below the happy birth ray tag. So these are three basic dots. So we are done with the entire card. Let me take you a little bit closer so that you can observe all the details carefully. Using these little elements together and combining them, we have formed this beautiful black theme birth ray card that you can use very easily to gift anybody. You're free to explore and experiment with the entire card. I hope that you enjoyed the entire process of creating this particular card. Now let us move towards the next card. 5. Birthday Card - 2: Hey, everybody. You're most welcome to the second birthday card. As you can observe, I'm ready with my second base, and we are going to apply this beautiful white cut out of paper on two different corners. So I'll be using a simple pair of scissors, and initially we'll just remove a semicircular shape. Now, once we get a simple semicircular shape, we are going to convert it into two equal parts again. So now we have got two more equal parts, and we are going to place it on the corners of this particular card base. In order to stick the paper, we are going to apply some glue on the backside. No need to hurry at all, apply some good amount of glue so that the paper will get stuck with the base. I'm just spreading the glue and we are going to apply the entire pattern paper on one corner. So I'm going to place it on the left corner right now, align it with the lines, and simply apply some pressure using your thumb or fingers. Similarly, we have the second cutout and we are going to place it on the bottom right corner. So again, I'll be applying some glue and spread it nicely. In fact, you have to apply it in this cutout pattern area as well. Now we'll just simply place it on the bottom right corner, align it with the lines of the card base and simply apply some pressure using your thumb and fingers. So as you can observe, we have completed the entire card base with this beautiful decorative white paper. Now let us move towards the next part, which is creating the birthday tag. I've taken a simple piece of rectangular paper, which is completely white. The size is approximately 8 centimeters by one centimeters. Draw a simple pencil line in between, which is acting as a reference line. This reference line basically helps us to write the message in a straight manner, and it will look completely aligned with the entire horizontal lines. So I'll start writing it using my marker from line. It is having a 0.0 tip, and it is completely black. You can use any good alternative. It is absolutely fine. This is water resistant. So I'm starting with happy. No need to hurry at all. You can write it in your own handwriting. It is absolutely fine. Now, once you are done writing happy, leave a little bit of space in between and start writing birthday. You can observe the way I'm leaving even space in between the letters, as well. So I'm done writing birthday as well. I'll just put a simple dot above I, and then we are going to enhance the letters by filling the gap between THDY. You can enhance H and Y and happy as well. So we are done writing happy birthday. Now I'll be using a simple eraser to remove the reference line which we have created using a pencil. No need to hurry at all, take your time and simply remove the pencil line. This will make the entire letters look even more better. So we are almost done removing the pencil line. Now, we are going to enhance the entire birthday tag by adding a little bit of dark green colour in the background, and there is going to be a brown paper as well. This entire effect will give a nice three D effect to the entire birthday tag. So the process is very easy. We are going to use a double sided tape. You can observe a beautiful thickness of the double sided tape. I'm going to take one simple piece of the double sided tape and put it aside. Similarly, take one more piece. You can cut the piece using a pair of scissors. Now we have got two little pieces of double sided tape, and we are going to apply it on the back portion of this birthday tag that we have created. No need to hurry at all, place one of the tag on right side, another one on left side. Now, once you have placed the double sided tape, simply remove the back sticker so that there is stickiness on the back side. Now we have a beautiful sticky surface and a little bit of thickness. We're going to place it on dark green paper. So I'll take a little piece of dark green paper aside, and we are going to place the white birthday tag on it. Leave a little bit of space on the top portion and side, and you'll observe a beautiful dark green border around on the topmost portion and left side. Now using a simple pair of scissors, we are going to create even space on the bottom side and the right hand side as well. So simply cut the remaining part. No need to hurry at all. Take your time, try to cut in a parallel manner. And similarly, I'll be removing the additional portion on the right hand side as well. Now we have got a beautiful border of dark green color in an equal manner, and there is a beautiful three defect. I don't know whether it is visible or not, but it looks really amazing. Now using the same steps, we are going to give a beautiful brown border as well. This time we are not going to apply a double sided tape. We are simply going to apply some glue. So just simply flip your birthday tag, and on the back portion, apply some good amount of glue. No need to hurry at all, make sure that the glue is applied in a nice manner. Spread it well. And we are going to just place the birthday tag, again, leaving some space on the topmost portion and left handside. Apply some pressure using your fingers. Let it dry for a while, but as usual, I'm not having any patience in myself. So I'll just take the entire piece of paper and start cutting it. Try to have even space on all the sides. Make sure that you make a cut in a parallel manner, and we are ready with the entire birthday tag. You can observe we are having these beautiful colors, having a beautiful outline. First one is dark green, second one is brown, and the main sheet of paper was white. So this is how we make the entire birthday tag look a little bit more in three D aesthetic manner. You can place it according to your convenience wherever you want to on the card base. So now, in order to place the birthday tag, we are going to apply some glue on the backside. So I'll just flip the entire birthday tag, apply some good amount of glue on the entire surface. No need to hurry at all and make sure that you apply the glue on the corners. Now, we are going to place the birthday tag on the card base. I'm placing it a little bit in the down portion, and a certain portion of the birthday tag is also going on the paper cutout that we have pasted it on the corner. Apply a little bit of pressure using your fingers and let the entire birthday tag dry for a while. So we are done with another element, which is the birthday tag. Now let us move towards a beautiful element that we are going to create. So I'm having a little piece of white paper and my punching machine. A punching machine is basically used to create holes in a paper so that you can attach it to any file. Now, we are going to just create these little holes on a white paper, basically, and you can observe the cutouts in circular format. Now, once you remove the back container, you get this beautiful little circular shape. I'll just take it on my desk surface, and you can observe these little cutouts, which is in circular form. Now, similarly, I'll make few more cuts. No need to hurry at all, take your time and create these little circular shapes. It will take a lot of time to cut it using a scissor. That's why I have used a punching machine. In case you want bigger balloons, you can definitely cut it using a scissor also by drawing a circular shape on a white paper using pencil and then cutting it using a scissors. Now, these are little white circular shapes that we have got, and we are going to form a beautiful cluster of clouds on the black surface. So before we apply the circular shapes onto the black paper, we are going to apply some glue. So I'll take my liquid glue and apply these little dots. And since the glue is white, you'll be able to see the composition that you create. So you just have to apply these little dots in a cluster format. You can apply it wherever you want to, but make sure that the dots are very near to each other. So I've applied few dots. Let me apply a few on the bottom part as well, creating a nice cluster of clouds together. So we have applied the glue right now. Now we are going to place the small circular shape on this particular glue. So I'll be using a simple tweezer. In case you do not have a tweezer, you can use your fingers as well. This is a little bit more convenient. That's why I'm using a tweezer. So I'm simply putting these little paper cutouts on the glue. No need to hurry at all, take your time and just simply apply the circular shapes. In case you want a bigger cluster of clouds, you can take more cutouts of circular shape. And in case you want to do a little bit of more creativity, explore and experiment. What you can do is you can experiment with the size of the balloon as well. You can cut a different shape for the balloon, and you are free to explore in any way. So I'm done with almost all the circular shapes. Let me paste the last one. And you can observe we have got a beautiful composition of these little balloons together. Now, in order to make it look a little bit more like a balloon, we are going to add few more details. So I'll be using a simple white pen, and we are going to just draw a little bit of rubber portion which is visible when we tie a balloon. So you just have to create a little rectangular shape on the bottom portion of all the balloons. No need to hurry at all, take your time and try to create these little shapes. I'm using a white pen because it will create a nice contrast on a black background. Now, once we have added these little rectangular shapes, what we are going to do is we are going to create lines which are going to connect on a bottom portion of the entire cluster. You have to take one single line which is connecting at a single point on the bottom part. So these are basically the threads, and it makes a nice visual as if someone is holding the entire cluster of balloons. So slowly, I'm connecting all the balloons together at one single point on the bottom part. So you can observe how beautiful the entire part is looking. Now, similarly, the remaining portion of the threads have to be drawn on the bottom part. So just create these little vertical lines in the bottom part. And they are tied with a simple thread so you can create this little curved shape as well. We are done creating this beautiful element of balloons together, and it looks really amazing with the entire composition. Now comes another part, which is adding a beautiful golden color palette so I'll be using my metallic sketch pen again, and we are going to create these little dots just below the happy birthday tag. So these are combination of five dots together. You can do it according to your convenience. Similarly, I'll be adding a little bit of color palette on the topmost portion. So I'm just adding three right now, but I feel like I have to add few more dots. So let us add few more so I'm making them five, as well, and these are a little bit bigger than the first one, which are on the bottom portion of the happy birthday tag. So we have created five circular shapes on the top right corner. You're free to explore and experiment. You can do this particular thing according to your convenience, as well. It is absolutely fine. In case you do not have a golden marker, you can go for a white one. So we are done with the entire card. Let me take you a little bit closer so that you can observe all the details carefully. This was the second and last card for this particular class. I hope that you enjoyed the entire process and got to learn something new and creative. I would be really excited to see all of your class projects. Feel free to experiment and explore and do not worry about the output. Now let us move towards the class conclusion. 6. Class Conclusion: Hey, everybody. You're most welcome to the class conclusion. I hope that you enjoyed the entire class and got to learn something new and creative. I personally love to make handmade birthday cards whenever I'm gifting any loved ones. And in case you want to use it for a different purpose, it is absolutely fine. You just have to change the message. One thing that I always tell my students is to practice on a regular basis and no need to worry about the output. Enjoy the process of creating. I would be very excited to see all of your class projects into the project gallery, so do not forget to add them into the project gallery. It's a very humble request from my side to you to leave a review for the class as it encourages me a lot and my class can reach many more students like you. At the end, I would like to say, keep learning, keep practicing. Thank you so much for joining the class and happy painting.
