Happy Birthday Connie!

I will get back to my Claritystamp samples but it's my friend Connie's birthday today and I just wanted to say Happy Birthday Connie! Of course I couldn't possibly tell you how old she is, as that would be rude.............

.......................but this is the card that I made for her.

It's a mixture of two pop-up box cards by Lori Whitlock bought from the Silhouette Store and cut on my Cameo. The printable papers by American Crafts were also bought from the store and sized to fit.

As we go out for coffee and cake once a week I had to make sure that there were cakes involved. The cupcake paper on the side is so cute.....

............and I positioned the paper at the back so that the cake had pride of place. The flame on the main cake has been glittered to add a bit of sparkle.

The balloon is shaped with a ball tool and stuck on with Pinflair glue gel. I tied two strands of embroidery floss to it and let them hang down like a string.

The same printable papers were used to create a matching gift bag.

Some thoughtful words finish off the back of the card.

I think I am going to be in so much trouble when I see her later......................
