Sooo... today is all about birthdays...I had a lot of fun playing with some oldies but goodies.
Here's my card...
Isn't that fun!! For my card I die cut the Cupcake die several times. Then I sponged the cupcakes with two complimentary pink colors and adhered randomly onto a white panel. To get the middle cupcake I cut the die in coral and then turned it over, traced around the outside of the die, and fussy cut to get the solid background. Added a layered Celebrate die (for several layers I die cut with white, adhere, then die cut with the gold and adhere on top. This way I don't waste all that gold paper!). Added a seam binding bow, gold bow, and pearl for a little bling!!
