Special Card for my Special Daughter-in-Law

I wanted to make a special card to send to my daughter-in-law because I had some pictures that I wanted her to have so I came up with this cute cupcake card.  (She is such a sweetie so cupcakes are very appropriate!) The card is a 5x7 and I cut the cupcake from pg. 49 of Once Upon A Princess. I did the layer but not the shift layer because I didn't want the face on this one.  It is cut at 4.41"H.  Pinks and browns are some of my favorite color combinations! The label on the front is from Fabulous Finds and is cut at 1.35"H. The stamp on the label is one I found in the $1 bin at Michael's and the brads were in a set from Hobby Lobby. Inside, I made a little pocket to tuck the pictures in. The tag on the inside is from Tags, Bags, Boxes and More - sorry, I didn't take the time to look up the page number because I already had this tag cut previously.  The stamps on the tag are a $1 set from Joann's.  My custom stamp on the back is one I sent for after seeing the link on Okie's blog. I love getting my blog address out there for all to see!  If anyone wants the website where I got my stamp, I'd be happy to get that for you - just leave me a comment or check it out on Okie's blog. Wow! That's a lot of writing for a little card!  :-)  Thanks for stopping by today!!

She is our wonderful host for this hop!  On to my project: I decided to make a Spring mini album to showcase a few pictures that I took at the Zilker Botanical Gardens in Austin, TX.  What is more telling of Spring than flowers?!   I used the Card/Tag feature on the Paisley Cricut cartridge and used paper from the DCWV Spring cardstack. (I think this stack was from last year or maybe even the year before! :-) I'm just finally using it! )  The paper flowers throughout are from the 3 Birds Pretty Petals collection.  Read to the end of this post to find the link for the next blog to hop to and for my ...

I used the Cricut Sentimentals cartridge for the postage stamp cut on the front of each card and used my Gypsy to cut them so I could unlink the H and W so it would be 3.75" square. The valentine cuts for the fro...
