sweet cards

Hi folks!!! Just a quick drive by post while I have a few free minutes. I have been in quite a creative slump when it comes to playing with just paper, whether it's scrapping a page or just a couple of cards. Other projects have taken over, and I have so many great ideas in my head it's been hard to get them out one at a time.

I forced myself to sit down and play with paper however. I decided to start small and make a couple of cards. So I did! I have to say I think these are SO cute! I stuck with the ever popular Cupcake theme, pulled out my DCWV Sweet Stack, and had a lot of fun making these "twin" birthday cards.

Now I feel like I might be able to finally be creative again with paper. These lil cards have inspired me in a lots of ways, the important way being that I've learned I still have what it takes to make something as sweet as these cards.

Happy Scrappin'

Cupcakes.... They aren't just for eating anymore.

Cupcakes seem to be all the rage in the crafting world... (or at least one of them), and I've seen these cute lil guys on blogs all over the web so when I knew I would be planning a baby shower, I thought these would make great prizes for some of the games.

These were super easy to make, I managed to find some .svg files to use with my Cricut to cut the Cupcake Wrappers, and I must say, locating the files (which was fairly easy) was the hardest part of this entire project. lol

Next, I took a pair of fleece socks (that I was able to purchase at the Dollarstore), and Rolled them up, and shaped them a little to make them look like a frosted cupcake.I topped each sock cupcake with a little red pom pom, and then packaged them in a clear bag and that was it.... easy huh???
So looky at that, a new way for Cupcakes to give you that warm & fuzzy feeling. Cupcakes: They aren't just for Eating Anymore. :)
Happy Scrappin'
