CFC 51 Happy Birthday!

Good morning, Friends! I hope your weekend has been fantastic! Ours was another busy one with another quick trip to south Denver. Most people went right home after the game but Pat and Nick had tickets to the Rockies game and met some friends of ours there. So I dropped them off and came to the hotel and watched it on t.v. They were off to a super start and then things pretty much fell apart for them. And then the rain started and that's when the boys all came back. Too bad for the Rockies. But it sounds like everyone had a great time! A home run ball got close to where they were sitting!!


Today's card was inspired by the theme at CAS-ual Fridays. The challenge was to create a clean and simple birthday card. I took a piece of the Just Add Cake designer paper and adhered it to a piece of Early Espresso and then to a piece of Whisper White. This is all popped up onto a card base of Whisper White. Then I took a strip of Whisper White and flagged both ends before stamping the greeting from Create a Cupcake in Early Espresso. This is adhered to the card. I punched a 1 3/4" circle from Whisper White and popped this up on the card. On a scrap of Whisper White I stamped the cupcake bottom in Wild Wasabi and the top in Blushing Bride. These were punched out with the cupcake builder punch and popped up on the circle. Then I punched a flower from Poppy Parade with the itty bitty shapes punch pack and added a rhinestone. Thanks for stopping by and have a super day!
