If Cupcakes Grew on Trees...

I set my own personal record today - 8 challenges with 1 card:


Challenges:
Pile It On: Let Them Eat Cake
Pink Elephant: Something with Dots, Punch, and Tag
Whimsy Stamps: The Eyes Have It - use eyelets
Pollycraft Challenge: Pick 2 of the following - Snowflakes, Sparkle, Spots, Stripes, Swirls
2 Sketches 4 You: Sketch to the right
Just Buggin: Use any die cut, but alter it
Practical Scrappers: Use any die cut
One Stop Craft Challenge: Use any die cut


I embossed the background with the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots folder, and randomly added pink stickles to some of the dots for some sparkle.

The tree was cut from the Cricut Stretch Your Imagination cartridge, and the swirly pattern embossed in the top of the tree was from with the Cuttlebug Victoria folder.

The cupcakes were from the Cricut Doodlecharms cartridge. Of course I had to add some bling with the little gems on the cupcakes.

I used 3 different punches for the layered edging. The dark pink was actually a corner punch that I turned . The light pink in the middle was cut with a Fiskars punch (not sure of the name). The bottom edging was made with the Martha Stewart lace punch.

I cut the tag for the sentiment with the Cricut George cartridge. Then I added an eyelet so that I could tie the tag to the tree with some pink hemp cord. I added some pink glass beads to the cord just for an extra little detail.

At the top I used 2 large eyelets and tied a knot with pink grosgrain ribbon. I also decided to make the entire card shaped like a big tag - I love how that looks!

Thanks so Much for Looking!
