Birthday cupcake

I can NOT believe it's been a year since I participated in a challenge!  I have been steadily making cards for my own friends and family and for my little cardmaking business.  {But I do update my Facebook page with new cards regularly so hope you will join me there!}

I enjoy reading the "Seize The Birthday" blog but have never participated in their challenge.  They have "anything goes" as their theme this week and since I just made a cute card, I wanted to share!

I am making cards to donate to our local elementary school PTO teacher appreciation brunch.
I'm sharing two cards because I don't know which I like more.  I just love the little cupcake so much!

The text is from "My Sentiments Exactly" clear stamps.
I used the wood embossing folder for the bottom of the cupcake.
And for the top, I used a scallop circle punch.  I cut it smaller on the top card with scallop edged scissors.

I hope everyone is having a great day!
