My entry into the current MSE challenges


Lots of the lovely ladies over on the MSE thread met up yesterday at the NEC craft show. I was really gutted not to have gone to meet everyone, but for those of us on the thread that didn't go, Louisa (DTB) set a challenge to make a cake card, and this is my entry for it. Kept it quite simple so that I can also enter into the challenge that OAP1945 set for this fornight which is 'KISS' - keep it simple stupid. The challenge was to use 3 papers - plain, pattened, textured; either 3 buttons or 3 bows; and something sunny coloured.
For the card I have used an image off my pc, coloured in on paintshop pro; some cupcake paper; a piece of gold card; some pink gemstone card, run through the 'bug' with the happy birthday embossing folder and 3 buttons. To cheer the card up I have used some bright pink ribbon on the back of the image. The rectangles were cut with deckled rectangle nesties on the cuttlebug.
