... to my not so little girl. Jemma is 12 today, 12 years that have flown by in the blink of an eye. She spent her day shopping, and swimming, and now has a friend over for a sleepover. However, her main party is Saturday, when 3 of her friends are coming out for a meal, and then sleeping over...
This is the card I made for her birthday. Jemma has taken a shine to baking just recently, so I thought I would make her a paper cupcake! I used 2 sketches from Sketch Support for this card - Card sketch #5 and Add-on sketch #3.
I used up scraps from BasicGrey Recess collection, and the "frosting" of the cupcake uses Scenic Route scraps. I scored kraft cardstock with my Hougie board to make the cupcake base, and the border is punched with a Martha Stewart punch. I cut the circles for the "frosting" were cut using my circle Nestabilities. The sentiment stamp is by Personal Impressions, and the foam numbers are American Crafts Thickers. I added some Frosted Lace Stickles to the cupcake to add extra frostiness!!
Jemma loved the card, and had a great day. She is already counting the days til her next brithday, although I know I am not that keen for her to be a teenager as quickly as she is....
