Today's card is a big "THANK YOU" to CAS-ual Fridays Challenge Blog. They chose me as a VIP for my "Hippy Birthday" card a couple of weeks ago during their birthday bash, and sent me a wonderful stamp set from Simon Says Stamp called Savor Sweet Cupcakes.
The "What a Treat" and all three cupcakes are from Savor Sweet Cupcakes. The papers are from the Restoration Collection of Crate Paper: Slipcover and Fringe. I used Gathered Twigs Distress ink, and White embossing powder. The kraft colored circles are cut out of a Coffee cup sleeve (I liked the texture). I'm not sure about the "Thank You" sentiment. You see, when I first began stamping a few months ago, I bought a lot of wooden stamps from a Craig's List seller. I didn't understand the importance of knowing the brand for future reference, and I took them all off the wood and made them cling so I could store them easier. Okay, shoot me now! I've been looking online to try to identify them.
I'm entering this card in two challenges. I punched out the circles in the patterned paper and raised it up on foam, so it's going in the CAS-ual Fridays challenge (mainly so they can see my "Thank You" to them ; ).
I'm also entering it in the Lily Pad Cards Vera's View Challenge. It's too hard to resist those cupcakes!
Thanks for coming over to visit today!
