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.
Your Next stop is Mary.
Come back to Rachelle's Blog  to see IF you are the WINNER.

I am more than happy today after staying over 6 months without my husband. I was of the thought that it was going to be a boring xmas celebration spending it without my husband who just suddenly left me for no reason and was having an affair with my best friend ,not too long i saw a post of this great temple and the power of restoration by Dr Zadson and i contacted him via eduduzadsontemple@yahoo.com and in a space of 3 days my husband came back and this is going to be the best Christmas celebration ever am so glad. If you need such miraculous change contact this good doctor via eduduzadsontemple@yahoo.com
