Sweet Stampin Challenge #20 & Spring Creation Self Challenge Project #26!

I can't believe I have finished project #26 of my 30 project goal!! It's only April 1st! What will I do from now until July?? LOL I will have to up my goal I think! I have entered this card in Sweet Stampin Challenge #20 which is titled "A Man's World" and our only requirement was to make a card suitable for a man. Have you checked out the Sweet Stampin Challenge Blog yet?? It's a must, if you love stamping and Stampin' Up products!

This was a FUN card to create! I made it for my LOVELY Chiropractor, Dr. Langone, for his birthday. He has helped me feel soooo much better in such a short period of time! Finally feeling some relief all because I put faith in him to help me heal. AMAZING!

I had fun using "Glossy Accents" to create my "gooey" frosting look! I followed a sketch by Polka Doodles for their Week 12 Challenge, however I didn't read my challenge paperwork very carefully (we'll blame it on the FibroFog!) because I completely forgot we were only supposed to use Black and White along with ONE other color...OOPS! So, the sketch is from Polka Doodles, but I will be making another creation so that actually follows the rules! Oh well! One more project to look forward to! :) This cute little cupcake digital stamp is from Regina's FAB store The Cutting Cafe! I was lucky enough to win this set from a Bitten By The Bug challenge a while ago! I love this digital set, so if you haven't checked out her store it is a MUST! The cupcake is so cute on it's own but I jazzed it up with some folded vellum to look like a real wrapper and popped up a second cupcake for a more dimensional look. I cut the balloons (outside and inside) from teh Stretch Your Imagination Cricut Cartridge. I added glossy accents to the balloons for the front of the card and left the inside balloons "glossy-less". I really had fun with this project. Hope you like it and don't forget to leave some love!
