a happy birthday cupcake

happy mother's day to all today! whether you're a mom to a fur baby with a tail, grown kids, new baby's, or wish you were a mom. this day is for everyone, and i'm thankful for all of the mom's in my life. 

today i have a little card to share for the current challenge at CAS(E) this sketch! :)

and for my card, i used neat and tangled stamps and sequins! 
i sort of flipped the sketch, but i still think it works! :)

everything is paper pieced and the little cupcake (LOOOOOVE the cupcake images and sentiments on the sketchy cupcakes stamp set!) is popped up for dimension! and i love that tiny polka dotted 'frosting' ha ha! 

i added a dash of sequins to add a tiny bit of bling and also because they're my latest obsession, so they stay! :) i chose the typographic background paper because i LOVED the sayings on there, and i thought it would be PERFECT to use on a birthday card! it's hard to get older, right??? so it's good to be reminded you're beautiful, loved and wonderful! :) especially around a birthday! (or is that just because i'm going to be 32 in july and it FREAKS me out!! lol! how am i 31 already?!)



so that's it! be kind to everyone today, everyone has their own battles, blessings and struggles to face! so while you're celebrating today, celebrate everyday! :)
enjoy!
