Today is the second day of Preview Week for the Create with Connie and Mary Summer Collection 2014! And I am super excited because it's my turn to offer BLOG CANDY!! First, let me show you my card for today. And yes...it's another birthday card!
Isn't this just too cute!! Do you recognize this card at all? Well, I used a Create with Connie and Mary Thursday
Challenge card that I made two weeks ago as my inspiration. I just loved the banners so much from that
card and thought they would be even cuter with this little cupcake.
I changed up the colors and stamps but kept the design the same.
The first part of the design was the cupcake and sentiment. I stamped the cupcake pieces and punched them out to adhere to the card. The sentiment was stamped next to it on the Whisper White.
With the bottom of the card in place, the banners were easier to arrange. I alternated my colors, Baked Brown Sugar, Coastal Cabana, and Strawberry Slush. Each is added with a dimensional to make the banner stand out. The next step was to stamp and punch out stars from Something to Say. The stars join the banner together nicely. And the final touch, a rhinestone to connect the stars. Once the banner was complete, I stamped "party, party, party" with Coastal Cabana next to it.
And that's it! Another fun banner birthday card featuring Cupcake Party!!
