Birthday Dragon

Today's Post is a card I made for my Brother for his Birthday.

I used my new Pagoda cartridge.



I cut the card at 5 1/4 and the "Kanji" symbol for celebrate at 1 1/2. I cut the gift bag using Tags, Bags, Boxes & More and it was 7 1/2. The bag was pretty small and I only used it to put candy in. I was really excited to use that cartridge. I used Core'dinations Hocus Pocus Cardstock and the silver is from a Walmart Shimmer stack. I inked the edges in silver.
Tip: Next time I cut this card the Carstock needs to be 2 layers or pretty thick. The card fit in a Standard A2 envelope though.

Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Sock Cupcakes

Today is my sister-in-law, Bethanye's 27th Birthday. Happy Birthday to her. I already shared the chickadee card I made for her but I thought it would be fun to share the 'sock' cupcakes I made for her.



The rest of her presents including the glass candy Jar I etched for her!
Thanks for looking!
