A Big Cupcake Card!


So, today I'm popping in with a little card I just made for Maddisons friend from school.  It's a pupil free day here, so she asked me if I could make something that she could take to school tomorrow.

I thought the perfect fun card to make would be a giant cupcake.  I bought this die from Papertrey Ink last year and I really do love it.  The die comes in two parts - the cupcake body and then the little wrapper part for the bottom, making it really easy to customise it should you want/need to.

I just kept things nice and simple - Maddy loved it, so hopefully her friend will too!


Before I log out, I got a lovely little pile of cards AGAIN in the mail today - I could get quite use to this happy mail thing! lol 

So today's shout outs go to Madonna, Suzanne, Jodene, Trishy and Helen!
Each and every card is just so lovely and different and I'll treasure them:)

Thanks for stopping in today, I've gotta go and ice some cupcakes now - REAL ONES! lol

This is so CUTE! I love the felt flower, and the scallopy edge on the tiny tag; very sweet. I also love that Maddison's asking for a card for a friend - see, she knows you NEED to get back in to your crafting, love! Wow, you sure are receiving a lot of happy mail! :)

Totally adorable! Love that layer of flowers, very pretty.

You were going to send me a plain die cut of the cupcake so I could check it out before actually buying it. That was forever ago...

Glad you're enjoying your happy mail.
