With 2 school aged kids, there is often a birthday party for someone to attend, so a quick and simple card is always a good option, especially when I've forgotten about it until the LAST MINUTE! This one was made using the fabulous "Cupcake Builder Punch" (121807, $33.95). It's not just for cupcakes, I've seen clouds, hot air balloons, flower pots and lots more around blog land. I've punched the tops from some scraps of patterned paper, "Just Add Cake". I drew from the colours in the DSP to make the base from Baja Breeze, and a panel of Whisper White to build the cupcakes onto. The wrappers are Early Espresso cardstock. I added some Basics Rhinestones and a squirt of DIY Shimmer Spray, and my favourite Happy Birthday greeting from Party This Way (121558 $26.95 in wood mount, $21.95, 120609 in clear mount). Ta Da! Done, and out the door. Well, I could have been, but this time I was a little more organised and had made it the day before, and even took a picture, as you can see!
Speaking of ORGANISED, and LAST MINUTE, has everyone checked and double checked the Summer Mini for must-haves? Both the Summer Mini and the Sale-a-bration (free stamps!) promotion end THIS SATURDAY, 31st March. I've got my Stampin' Crop day on this day, so if you're local pop by to have a look, or email me your order before 8pm.
Here's a good example, based on the card above. You could have everything you need to make this card about 40 times with the products below, and endless numbers more by just adding more cardstock:
