Happy Friday!!! It's time for a new challenge from the Cut It Up Challenge Blog. This week, the challenge is: Something that begins with "B".
Here is my card for your inspiration:
This is for my sister's birthday which happens to be today (April 19)! The two of us have a love for food, specially yummy treats, so this card is very fitting for her. We also both run and exercise quite a bit so we can eat those yummy treats! My "B"s on the card are
Better,
Birthday,
Bunting and
Banner on my cupcakes. I am coming to the end of this paper pack, which I have had for a very long time. The papers are gorgeous but I am down to small pieces so I'm trying to find ways to use it up. The sketch I used was great for using up some of the larger scraps. The gold die cut doily pieces came into being in order to cover up a bit of the green that had a different pattern on it. Now, no one will ever know (except all of you!). The ribbon was also added to make the green piece seem a bit larger. The pink rhinestones were actually left over from some tile/sticker kits my girls had several years ago that they didn't end up using. And since I am never one to throw things away, they've been in my stash for a while. Using up bits and pieces of things is my favorite!! Even the little gold dots on the cupcakes are the left over pieces from the die cut doilies. And yes, I am one of "those" people! You can see the foil in the pink paper shimmer better in the photo below.
