WSC69 Big Bold Birthday

Not that anybody but me is counting, but this is 5 in a row! More inspiration from a challenge. This one is Beate's Weekend Sketch Challenge. Not sure I like the colors, but otherwise it's not bad!


Card base is Pumpkin Pie. Dotted DSP on the side is Kiwi Kiss from the Bella Rose set. Thought it would go great with the ribbon, which is from the new Ribbon Originals set Pig Tails. I ran the card base through the Big Shot with the Large Polka Dot Texture plate-they are hard to see in the scan. The cupcake bottom is Kiwi Kiss, frosting is Bashful Blue. I cut a reverse mask of the frosting and stamped Pumpkin Pie dots over. Candles are Kiwi.

One question for all you out there. Is there an easy way to texture just the the front of a card? without doing the whole thing? I tried to open the card and just do the front, but it moved when I put it through the Big Shot. Any suggestions? I ended up doing the whole thing, which doesn't look bad. The inside/back of the card have light impression dots on them!

Thanks again for stopping by! I survived shopping with two teenage boys today. They are stylin', and I'm broke! Ahh, the joys of parenthood!
