Birthday Wishes



At the Brown Sugar Challenge Blog the January 2020 Challenge #297 opens today, Friday, January 3, through Tuesday, February 4, 2020. We hope you'll join the challenge with your "Anything Goes" card.


Our sponsor is DRS Designs. We hope you'll browse their on-line store and blog for inspiration. I used the cupcake image for my birthday card. The image was downloaded, resized, printed and then colored with Copics and fussy cut. I added very fine glitter to the icing on the cupcake and Glossy Accents (liquid glass) on the cherry. I selected a pastel floral paper for the background, framed it with scallops and adhered it to a white card base. I stamped the sentiment directly onto the cupcake so as not to cover the pretty paper. The cupcake was adhered to the card with foam tape. The pearl flourish was added and a few spritzes of shimmer mist finished the card front. The inside was decorated with a few random birthday candles, also from DRS Designs.

If you've never played along at Brown Sugar, you're missing out on the chance of winning a generous gift certificate from our sponsor. You are not required to use an image to qualify for the gift. We hope you'll share your paper crafted project with us.
