Well, it's the end of the 1st month of the year. :o And I'm make very little progress with my crafty resolutions of making a stockpile of cards, and organizing my craft-tastrophe. *sigh* However, I am super pleased that I got this card to a special little birthday girl (from my church) right on time! Yay! (Gotta give myself some small semblance of encouragement, eh?)
I'm using a new-to-me Fresh Brewed Designs digi called "Dotty Cupcake" and new washi tape to enter the FBD January Monthly Challenge. I plan to make several versions of this card to have on hand for those "Is it your birthday already?!?" occassions. :) I colored the cupcake image with Copics, trimmed it out, and clear embossed the dots for that shiny hard candy shell look, and then used Rock Candy Stickles on the frosting for a sugary effect.
And, since I managed to do a challenge, and it is still the 1st month, I'm adding to my 2012 crafty resolutions (which, I decided just now to name "Craft-o-lutions") that I will play at least one challenge each month. That should help with keeping the other Craft-o-lutions, I think. ;)
Thanks for visiting & have a blessed day! ((hugs))
