I am loving this card SO much it is SO not me and they are colours that I never use….To the point I did not even own all the colours in Cardstock and Ink Pads {shock} but I made do. I needed to make a 21st Birthday card for my little cousin who is having a Hawaiian theme celebration to mark this milestone Birthday. I did not have to think to hard about this card which is nice. I straight away pulled out the Pink Flamingo Printed Papers and Cheers to You stamp set because I think they are perfect for this theme. What else made it easy was I took part in another Sketch Challenge this time from iheart2stamp.com.

Here is the Layout:

Here is my take on the Layout: It was a fun layout and a layout I would not of put together myself but it looks great. I have Watercoloured the Glass and paper pieced the other elements in the image. I have applied Crystal Efforts over the Glass and Cherry. I also used a little Crystal Efforts in the centre of the flowers.

And I just thought I would show you the envelope and card together, I love matching the card inside and envelope with the card front On the envelope I have covered the back flap with Printed Paper and used AC Thickers to put Melissa on the front. I am very happy with this card.

I have gone crazy, I am having a shocker at the moment….. OK I need to rewind a day to yesterday to set the seen…. I went and did a grocery store and brought in the groceries ….. WELL I don’t know what I was thinking or doing while I put the groceries away because I wanted in the kitchen a few hours later and I had let the “freezer” groceries on the bench, I opened the fridge and I had put the cleaning spray in there, In the SPOT I should of put the milk, then checked the freezer to see were my milk and other “fridge” items were….AND yeah I had but them in the freezer. OMG.
THEN TODAY….
I picked up my eco bags and handbag, I drove to the grocery store again, I picked up the items I needed to replace after yesterday….Went to the check out which was the same girl as yesterday so I told her my story….Put my hand in my hand bag and WHAT “NO MONEY”….I left my purse at home….. So I had to drive home and get my purse to pay for my shopping. You all I could do was cry, I really think I have LOST the plot……
THEN to add insult to injury, My Dear BF Elise suggested that this is happening because I am turning a year older tomorrow and she thinking it is a sign of “old age”…….. Elise is a few years younger then I….. And knows that I am already struggling with this birthday…… SO I just feel great, I am Old and Crazy…….. {lol}

Well now I have that off my chest, I can move on to the reason you are really here that’s for a card. I found this card kind of suitable to share today because I have used “Crazy” for Cupcakes, I found this set so much fun to use. This was a quick card to make {well quick for me} I have paper pieced the cupcake using Sweet Always printed papers. I am not totally sure on this card with the Birthday flag, I kept playing around with the position I am not sure if it should be in the centre…. But here it is.
