SPICING Up Your Birthday!

Happy Saturday!  Before I get started with this post, I just want to offer a prayer to the people of Japan after the devastating earthquake followed by a massive tsunami.  I do have family that reside there and I'm happy to report that all are well.  Hawai`i was put on alert.  We were all bracing for what was to come and thankfully we're all okay. 

Now, on to my card.  I used Sugar n' Spice Marci.  The moment I saw her, I think about {BIRTHDAYS}.  You can get her over at the La-La Land Crafts Online Store, {HERE}.  I punched out this cupcake border (EK Success) and added hearts to the cupcakes.  The hearts came from the Magnolia DooHickey Romantic Tag.  I just colored the hearts with my copic marker and added some Glossy Accents to give them a shiny appearance.




Here's the pull out tag with a sweet sentiment. 


A closer look at Sugar n' Spice Marci!


Thanks for stoppin' by!  Have a great weekend!  :)

  9. awe...what a sweet birthday card! I do love all your attention to detail. it makes your card all the more fabulous! love the punches, that tag pull out and your coloring is always so wonderful! so glad to hear that we are all safe and nothing damaged. yes, we need to keep praying for Japan as it will be a long road to recovery. amazing though, they are stating that Japan is the most prepared country and their buildings could withstand the earthquake and they will survive. no looting either! thank goodness! well hope you have a wonderful week!
