Hello, Cupcake! Blog Hop

Hello and Welcome to my little stop on the "Hello, Cupcake!" Blog Hop. If you came from Liz's Blog you are on the right path! If you just happened to pop in and see what I had for today and you want to play along in the hop just start back at Janis' Blog! Many of the blogs are offering some yummy Blog Candy (including mine) so make sure you are commenting along the way!

For today's project I wanted to make a Cupcake Birthday Card. I'm not much of a baker and my cakes and cupcakes tend to come from a box... but they are still YUMMY! Here's a look at my card:


I used my Gypsy to weld two of the cupcakes from the Create a Critter Cricut cartridge together. I set the height at 5" so it would be easy to make the other cuts just using my Cricut. I used a double sided pink cardstock so the inside of my card would be cute too! Then I used just my Cricut and cut the black base layer, purple wrapper, silver glitter cherry and pink glitter frosting all at 5".


Because the purple cardstock wasn't blingy at all, I decided to grab my Pop Rocks Glimmer Mist to add some shimmer. It really added just the right amount of sparkle to my card. I also added some Christmas Red Stickles to the fruit of my Cherry cut. I just love the way it turned out!


To finish off my adorable little cupcake I added some Googly Eyes! I think they add just the right amount of whimsy! I hope you enjoyed my card... Now before you hop along to Laura's Blog I wanted to offer you the chance to win some Blog Candy!!!! Just make sure you are following my blog and that you leave me a way to contact you if you are the winner! What am I giving away.....
