2 Cards for 2 Challenges Part 2!!!!

Hello again.. this is a quick one since it's a second post...

Here is the second card I made....

Card stock, Ink - Stampin' Up

Designer Paper is From the Yummy Imagine Art Cartridge

Cartridges - (Banner) April Showers Cut @ 2"

(Top Banner Layer green & Name) was welded together

in my gypsy using the April Shower & Lyrical letters (jumbo font)

The letters are @ 3/4"

I used 2 silver brads from my stash to look like it's nailed in the wall

I used a white signo gel pen for the faux stitching around the banner

The Numbers (16) are from the Sweet Treats Cartridge Cut @ 2 1/4" (2x's)

I also used Glossy Accents on my sons name... you may not be able

to see the shine but it's there! :o)

The Inside Cupcake was cut from the Yummy Imagine Art Cartridge

The Cupcake was Cut @ 3 1/2" from the first Image in the book, then

The Cupcake wrapper was Cut @ 4" from the 2nd Image in the book....

I wanted it to have more blue colors than pink.... :o)

The inside came from my Hallmark Program and I

used the RGB Codes from a Stampin' Up color for the colors

in the sentiment...

I cut the cupcake out twice and popped it up....

I also used some Glossy accents on the Cherry and

the Darker Chocolate top layer......

Here is just a side view showing the #16 Candles being popped up!

I also used some Yellow Stickles for the candle...

Just around the border to give it a little flame spark! :o)

I'm putting this in the Challenge over at:

Birthday Sundaes - Using an Inspirational Photo

Here's the photo:

My inspiration came from just using the cupcakes and the

Color blue in my card..... You are suppose to have a sentiment

on your card as well... but because this is clearly made as

a 16th Birthday card I thought it would still apply!

Or at least I hope so! :o) Anyway that's my

2 cards for 2 Challenges.... I hope you guys like them!

I thought they came out great and so did my son

who has them displaying in his room!

Have an AWESOME DAY!!!
