FMS ~ Happy Birthday!

I couldn't let the big celebration at Freshly Made Sketches slip by without playing along. Sending a big congrats on 700 sketches to all of their design team members past and present! This is what I put together for them this week.

I die cut 4 stitched squares then snugged them all together in my Misti. I stamped this pretty PFS wreath using PTI's Simply Chartreuse ink. After adding them to my square card base, I put together a yummy little cupcake (PTI). A sweet striped wrapper and shimmery pink frosting were topped with a couple of bright pink blooms. After playing around with sentiment ideas, this tab from Memory Box seemed a good fit!


Here's my first time playing along at FMS back in Feb. 2012!


Thanks for stopping by to visit, it's greatly appreciated!

Wishing you all a blessed weekend!

  7. What a pretty cupcake card with the wreath squares behind to draw attention. Not that the cutie cupcake couldn't do that on its own. ;0) How fun to see your first card for their challenge too. That's a long time to be playing along.
