My Scrap Chick Sweet Cupcake Cards

Hello Friends! If you were on my blog earlier. . .you're probably wondering what happened to my post! Well, the stamps that I posted aren't being released until tonight so I'll re-post the post later this evening.

Well, I wanted to show you the cupcake cards I made this morning! I used myscrapchick.com cutting files to create the cards! OMG! It was so FUN to create these cards especially because it's so easy using the myscrapchick.com files and my Cricut Machine. If you don't have a Cricut. . .that's okay, pdf files are also provided so you can hand cut the shapes too.

I used the "Sweet Cupcake Card" files and after making one, I kept going. I wanted to make more of them but I wanted to post them in the morning rather than later in the day. Believe it or not, the "Sweet Cupcake Card" files are only a $1. Imagine that? That is so awesome. Go check out the files. . you'll definitely find something you'll like.

With this card, I decided to create a little message in the front. All I did was reduce the size of the cupcake card file to create the mini cupcake in the front of the card.



Here is the message inside the little cupcake. I love it!!!

Here is another one. . .This time, I decided to use the little heart that comes with the files. I created the faux stitching with my Sakura Gel Pen

With this card, I ran the card base through my SU embossing folder and add fibers and the trimming to the card. There's endless possibilities when it comes to designing these cupcake cards. I can't wait to make more of them!!

Cards Details:

Files: myscrapchick.com Sweet Cupcake Card
Papers: All from SU Loves Me DSP, SU Regal Rose, Pacific Point, Pixie Pink (I think)
Ink: Tim Holtz distressing ink, Sakura Gel Pen
Accessories: Making Memories trimmings, fibers, SU embossing folder, Basic Basic Ribbon, Hemp Cord, Dew Drops


Before I go, I wanted to share this video by Jason Castro. Do you remember him? He was the contestant on American Idol. . the guy with the dreadlocks. I really thought this song was such a cute song. . .check it out!
