I want to wish Rachelle a very Happy Birthday! Now unto my project...

I decided to make this cute and quick birthday cards.  Both bases on the cards were 10x7 and score at 5.  I used brown cardstock for the base on Sweet Birthday wishes.  I cut 4 3/4x6 3/4 of Floral paper and adhered it to the card base.   Next, I cut a strip 3x5 from the brown cardstock and a strip 2 3/4x4 3/4 from Pink Strip pattern paper.  I adhered the pink striped on top of the brown cardstock then adhered the strips in the middle of the card.  I cut another strip 1 1/2x 4 3/4 from pink writing paper and used a border scallop punch then adhered it to the top of the card.   Using my Cricut Explore, I cut out the floral tag with circle and fancy title with mat.  I stamped a cupcake on the white circle and colored it with my copic markers.  On the sprinkles, I used my clear glaze pen. I adhered the cupcake circle to the brown flower with pop dots then adhered it to the card.  I also used Martha Stewart pink glitter pen around the edge of the white circle.  I also used the pen on the faux stitching in the center of the brown flower.   I stamped the "Sweet Birthday Wishes" onto the pink writing tag.  I adhered the pink writing to the brown shaped mat and to the card.  I attached a pink bow and little pearls to the circles in the scallop edge.

My next card had a white card base. I cut a green 4 1/2x6 1/2 piece and adhered it to the card.  I cut 4 1/4x6 1/4 dot print pattern and adhered it to the green.  From red cardstock I cut 3 1/2 square and 1 1/2x4 1/4 strip.  I used the scallop punch edge on one edge of the strip and adhere it to the bottom of the card then attached a white ribbon with knot in the middle.  I cut a white 3 1/4 square and adhered it to the red square then attached to the center of the card.  I used my cricut explore to cut out the cupcake, bubblegum machine and happy birthday.  I pop dotted them to the card and also used Martha Stewart glitter pens to accent the letters, bubble gum, candle, flame and flower.  I used clear glaze pen on the edges of the frosting of the cupcake and the globe of bubblegum machine.

 I hope you enjoyed my cards and thank you for stopping by.
