More Cupcake Cards!

Morning Folks!

I've been playing around some more with that gorgeous little Papertrey Ink Cupcake Die this morning and I thought you might like to see the fruits of my labour!

My daughter needed 2 birthday cards for her friends who are twins, and so asked me to make 2 cards that are the same but different!

This is what I came up with!


To make them 'different' all I did as you can see was to alter the 'icing' colour which I've also given some pattern by using the Sunshine Impression Plate by PTI.  The numbers are cut from some gorgeous sparkly paper that I had in my stash which seemed perfect for these cards!

This die is so much fun to work with! Unfortunately blogger isn't letting me insert links this morning, but if you go to my previous post, I have linked to the product there at Papertrey Ink so YOU can buy one! lol

That's my crafty efforts for today anyway - hope you like them!
