Cupcake thank you card

I made this cupcake card for my neighbors who were nice enough to bring cupcakes over to the house from the local bakery that just opened up in town (not that we really needed them, if you know what I mean).  This is the first time I had ever welded a shape together with my Gypsy to make a card, and it was sooo easy so I’ll be doing that again  

Here’s my card ~

What I used ~

All paper is from Stampin Up! – Rich Razzleberry, Real Red, Garden Green, and the polka dot paper is from the In Color DSP.

I used a Viva Décor Light Blue Glitter Liner to make the sprinkles on the top, and my gel pen to finish it off.

You & Me layout

Last night I went to a crop and had no idea what I really wanted to work on.  Ever have those moments where you really wanna scrapbook but you just have no idea where to start, well that was me last night.  I looked through books and stamps for inspiration and nothing was coming to me   I looked through my bag hoping something would jump out and scream “USE ME”, and I saw a photo in my photo box that did just that!  I actually had tried to scrap this photo a couple of weeks ago at the house and I knew what I wanted to do with it but just didn’t have the right paper to get it to work.  Here I was, going to try again….It worked, just as I saw it in my head!!  It’s a very simple, clean layout so I hope you like it, and as usual my family gives me inspiration even when I’m out and about  

What I used ~

Bottom patterned paper is from Stampin Up! - Woodland Walk DSP.  I’m not sure you can tell from this picture but it’s wood grain, I fell in love with it when I saw it
