Cupcake Blog Hop Candy Winner

Hi everyone,

Thanks for all the great comments that you left me on my cupcake card. I had fun making it and being in the hop for Sylvia's birthday. I hope I get to be in other hops in the future.

So I used random.org and chose a number and the winner is Christine. I hope you all had a good time doing the hop. There sure were a lot of wonderful cupcake projects!

Hello everyone! Welcome to my Blog and the Cupcake Birthday Blog Hop, for Monday, June 20th, celebrating Sylvia's birthday! I am so excited that I am participating in my first blog hop. We hope to inspire you with our Sweet Creations! You should have arrived from Jazzy's Cards, then you are in the right spot. If you happened to stumble upon my blog and would like to play along please start at Sylvia's Blog. She is giving away extra special blog candy! Don't miss out!

I made a "Pocket" card. The card has a spot in the front where either money or a gift card can be inserted. It can always be left empty too. I used the Cricut Birthday Bash cartridge for the cupcake and candles. I cut the paper 3 times and used pop dots in between each layer. The card front was embossed with a Cuttlebug cupcake embossing folder. The pink paper under the cupcake and candles was also embossed using a flower folder and the edges were cut with decorative sissors. The inside of the card has a Happy Birthday sentiment that I picked up out of the dollar bin at Michael's. It is embossed. I used the Spellbinder Nestabilities scalloped square for the writing area. The paper is out of my cabinet, plus the printed papers are DCWV and the party hat was cut from a My Mind's Eye paper. I used Stickles on the hat, front sentiment "Hello Cupcake," another $1 bin stamp and embossed, and for the glow around the candles. I put pink and green bling on the cupcake frosting and a flower bling on the top of the hat.

It's hard to see the 3-D effect with the pictures.

I am offering Blog Candy. Please become a follower and leave a comment Please make sure that I have a way to reach you. I will post the winner on Wed., 6-22. I will use random.org to pick the lucky winner of a can of Costa Bright Prima flowers.
