"Paradise" Birthday Cake Card

Happy Monday everyone!

I think I've been stuck in a crafty rut. Boo. I'm blaming it on the gloomy weather we've been having. All the cloudy days filled with rain and fog have bummed me out. So to cheer myself up, I made some birthday cards using some summer paper. And it did the trick!! I've been in a summer time mood all day.

I started with some scrap paper I had from the "Paradise Beach" paper pad. Using four different patterned paper, I cut the paper into 1/4 inch strips. Then I took a piece of copy paper measuring 4 1/2 x 4 1/2 and ran adhesive all over it. I laid the strips in a diagonal pattern across the copy paper. It created this really cool and unique patterned paper.

Using my Cricut I cut out a simple silhouette of a birthday cake and cut a square around the image measuring 4 3/4 x 4 3/4. I did some simple white pen outlining and stamping with a "Happy Birthday" stamp from my stash. Super easy, fast and adorable card.

Cake Birthday Card

I made this simple birthday card using my Sweet Treats cart. Sometimes I feel bad if I haven't used a cart in awhile. So I pulled it out and picked a cute cake cut.

I wanted to make a card for the Scrapalicious USA challenge blog. Challenge #9 was based of this sketch.

And this is what I came up with.

I cut the cake (haha) at 4 inches and cut the cake plate at 5 1/4 inches. The stamp is from Papertrey Ink. And the paper is all from my scraps. Of course, I added some bling - Stickles. Yum!
