Now, on to my project!!

I created this bright, fun card using my Cricut Imagine and Yummy Cartridge.

I cut out all of the pieces from Yummy and my Imagine.  I inked the edges with vintage photo ink. 

I made a card base from lime green cardstock and I trimmed the rectangle to fit my card.

I used some pink ric rac ribbon across the bottom of the card.

I pop-dotted the "Celebrate" tag to the top of the card.

I added stickles to the cupcake icing and pop-dotted the cupcake on the card.

This was a fun quick card.  I love this background paper - the colors are bright and I love the shapes!!

I added some scrappy goodies to the envelope (ribbon, mini stamp set, gems & alpha stickers) for Emily to scrap with!!

Thanks for hopping by today!  Your next stop is the Awesome Anita!
