I'm posting an unfinished card for you tonight, so you can tell me how to embellish it! Well, truth be told, I'm hungry and tired, and I'm going to bed before I venture into the kitchen and eat too much!
My BIG SISTER'S birthday is coming up in early December, so I took a stab at a birthday card for her. Of course I had to use the cupcakes!! And of course again, I had to use my new Nestabilities. This time, I decided to make the cupcakes chocolate, because my family is an m&m's family. See, my Dad worked for m&m's most of my growing up years, and all 6 of us kids have first names that start with 'm'. So this one's for Maureen!
I'm thinking of using the Level I hostess set 'Occasions Collection' for the embellishment. I'm thinking about using the 'Happy Birthday' sentiment, then punching it with the word window punch - if it fits - and hanging it from the central medallion like a tag. Not sure, though. I thought a pink bow would look cute, but couldn't make it work quite right. Maybe I'm just too tired.
Let me know your thoughts! Back tomorrow... I'll post the finished card whenever it's finished! It'll definitely be by early December so I can get it in the mail on time!
Awww, nice card, and love the story about the 'M' names. That is unique. My father and his brothers and sisters were all named with initials.....no names. OT, AG, JC, for the boys and LZ and BB for the girls. Never did know my grandparents logic behind that!

How about some of those tiny red thingies you used for monster eyes for the cherries on top?
