Never Too Old for Cupcake Birthday Card...

Hey there, friends!  Wow, I am counting the weeks (yes, that long!) since my last post and wonder what I did with all that time?  But the usual things of life plus a project I am trying to complete kept me from making some cards the past few days but today, I had to make a birthday card for a friend whose birthday is in the next few days but had a party yesterday.  I love stamping technique a lot although I have several Cricut machines and many carts that I seldom use.  Just few days ago, I discovered Cricut Craft Room  and what a wonderful way to complete a project using that program in my computer and my machines so, here's the card I made.  I used the Once Upon a Princess cart to make this Cupcake Birthday die-cut...I did some inking and added some stickles (glitters) to embellish the cupcakes.  Oh, how sweet!  I also embossed the sentiment and the background CS using my Cuttlebug and incorporated a nice ribbon for added dimension.  Inside the card is a nice sentiment from Thena Smith that I got from a book (The Ultimate Guide to a Perfect Card, 2nd Edition).  I love how it fits my image perfectly...Anyway, this came out really good considering it was rushed...Is 3.5 hours making a card rushed?...Well, for me it was...LOL  You're looking at an A7 size card.

If you need more information about the Cricut Craft Room, you can go to Cricut.com and sign-up to find out more about it.  All I can tell you is that it's free and all you need to have is a computer with internet connection, your machine and the cartridge you want to use and you can cut images from your computer to the machine.  It's kinda like the Cricut Design Studio but it's free and a lot easier, I think!  So, guess I will be featuring some die-cut cards here in the future...God bless you and remember to ask the Lord direction in your life each day.  He loves you and deeply cares for you.  All you need to do is accept and trust Him with your life...Tata for now!
