Last night ... after cleaning and working to get ready for Tommy Rays party, I just needed some stress relief. The cakes messed up ... Lots of things happened to get me down. I did fix / use the broken cake .. but that will be a story for the bday party post:). I checked emails and remembered Taylor's Cupcake challenge!YES! I went to her blog and got excited. Her and the featured cupcake samplers cards were so so cute and I loved the sketch. I had been going to Mel's blog so much lately for ideas that I remembered her tut for the grid cards. I thought it would be great for this challenge. I messed up a few ((I don't own a score pal yet)). I also hand stitched the beads. It was time consuming.. but fun and got my mind off things. My paper is by American Tradition and the stamp is the cupcake from my Cupcakeabella. Thanks for visiting me and thanks, Taylor, for the challenge.
such great attention to detail! great card!
