Happy Birthday to you!


Happy Tuesday blogger friends!!! I think Spring has finally sprung here in Maine! It is absolutely beautiful here! I hope it is where you are too!


Today I want to share the birthday card I made for my hunny, whose birthday was yesterday!!!


Once again I used my big shot machine to make the embossed background. I got this awesome embossing folder at AC Moore and after I ran it through the machine, I sanded the top to highlight the words. I punched the corners with the Stampin' Up ticket punch and adhered it to the card! I used some dark blue and white card stock to make the mats and then stamped the large cupcake (from Stampin' Up's crazy for cupcake set) onto white and hand cut it out! I colored it with watercolor pencils and used dimensionals to add it to the mat!


Inside (which I rarely ever do) is simply matted with the same dark blue and white and stamped in black ink. I colored the Happy with a blue watercolor pencil and voila!!

Plain and simple - easy peasy!!!


Thanks for popping in today! Tomorrow I will show you some of the cards I made at the crop I attended a few weeks ago!
