The next challenge at Seize the birthday has a topping, but if you do not use it, make sure it is a Birthday theme.
Hello Crafters and Birthday Card makers! This next Challenge is
Make a Funny/Pun-ny card.
Jenny is the host for this next challenge.
This is my card.
It all began with me looking through my basket of previously printed Ideas for cards.
I came across this one that I had but I don't remember where I got it from. (sorry)
I decided to go ahead and use it and I cut it out in a circle first and then using the Pink Fresh folk edge circle ,I cut a pink circle. I also went through some of my stack of 6 by 6 designer paper and decided to use this 4 Seasons Summer. I think it goes nicely with the margaritas. I placed all of this on a card base from Gina K Designs in Jelly Bean Green. Using My Favorite Things long stem bar wear and garnish dies, I cut out lots of Margarita glasses. At this point I wasn't sure how I was going to use them. Each Margarita has a garnish of a lime and a straw. I colored the insert in green and used glossy accents.
I hope you noticed that I put some crystal embossing on the top of each glass with
glue and did not heat set it.
On the inside I used a strip of leftover design paper along with pink fresh fancy edges cut in Jelly bean green and yes one more Margarita glass for the happy birthday sentiment
Please stop over at the blog and take a look at what the team has done for this challenge.

ReplyDeleteBarb, this is just perfect! I love the sentiment of course, but I also love the salt rims on the glasses. Great job with this Topping.
ReplyDeleteIt's funny alright, and I love it! The drinks and paper are perfect together, like having a tipsy interlude at a garden party, and it's bringing back summer memories of days gone by. Love the salt on the rims. Love the inside, too! So cute, Barb!
