Happy Cupcake

Here is a "happy" cupcake I made for one of my good friends.   We were meeting up and I wanted to get her a cupcake to celebrate her day.   So decided to dress it up!

I took the Petal Cone Sizzex die.   I took a piece of paper and foldded it over.   2" x 1" piece of paper and folded it over.   Next I put the paper on the end of the Sizzex die.    When ready I just slipped the folded piece over the baker's twine and put some adhesive in the center to keep it in place.    The sticks came from bamboo skewers.  

Ingredients to make the banner:
Alphabet stamp set from a local craft store
Ink:  Cherry Cobbler
Paper:  Blushing Bride, Cherry Cobbler
Accessories:  Pearls and Baker's Twine
Tools:  Petal Cone Sizzex Die, Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack, Big Shot

Happy Mother's Day

I would like to wish all my friends, family and fellow stampers, Happy Mother's Day!   Here is a super cute idea that was inspired by the flowers I got for my mom.   Instead of a card, I decided to make a pennant to put in the vase with the flowers!   It also gave me the opportunity to try out the great flower that has been showcased on different blogs and Pinterest!

It is made with the Blossoms Petal Builder Punch.   I punched 16 of the large petals and 9 of the small ones.   The center was made with the Daisy Sizzex.    The petals I used my paper piercer to curve them and then of course played with them when adhering them to the paper.    The first layer I attached with mono-adhesive.   The second layer was attached with Stampin' Dimensionals.   The last layer I just attached with monoadhesive.   The center I used glue dots and scrunched the daisy into the center.

Hope everyone has an amazing day and is treated like a queen!   Still need card ideas for Mother's day, click here  to see some samples.
