We had a 3-fer party yesterday - Two of my nephews share a birthday and my youngest brother's birthday is 2 days earlier. While my nephews cards were done well in advance, I needed something fast for my brother. I cased a 2/11/10 card by Maile Belles, who has a fantastic blog: http://mailebelles.blogspot.com/2010...-birthday.html Make sure you check it out!
I stamped the cupcakes in wasabi, pumpkin, pacific blue, and summersun, then watercolored the icing on the wasabi and blue and the wrappers on the pumpkin and summer sun. I then applied stickles the icing of all 4 cupcakes.
Sorry for the horrible photo. It was a dark and stormy day and I actually gave this card to my brother within an hour or so of completing the card. As bad as the photo looks, I think I'm going to make a couple of these for my stash. It actually looked good and a perfect non-girly card for the guys in your life. NOTE: if you do have to give a card quickly after completing, you might want to re-consider using a healthy dose of stickles on it. I managed to smear the stickles AND get the card wet in the rain. Let's just say it truly looked home made when my brother received it! ;)
