Cupcakes

Here it is, my bright birthday card. I really wanted to use the Melon Mambo Pompom Trim, so I started my color choice with Melon Mambo then I pulled out my color coach and used one of the color combo suggestions. Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight, and Tempting Turquoise.

I used my new stamp set, Create a Cupcake along with the Build a Cupcake punch. I love it when a punch fits the stamped image, it saves so much time. I know my customers love it too because they love my cards but they always tease me about having to cut out those crab legs from Crab & Company or those little bees from Just Buzzin' By. So I love when I can tell them this is going to be an easy one because the is a punch for this stamp and you don't have to cut it out.

Today is my sister Selena's birthday so maybe I'll give her this card. (When I get back from my weekend retreat.) I am actually blogging ahead of time so that my blog won't sit untouched all weekend. Eric and I are in Costa Mesa enjoying the beach and our time together. Hopefully we aren't going nuts worrying about Malachi (first time parents, first time away from our little bundle of joy) or hopefully we aren't driving my sister nuts with all our phone calls and text messages checking up on the baby.

I shall return...
