I saw a beautiful card in Craft Stamper magazine this month, and just HAD to buy the stamp set used to make the card. In the magazine the cupcake is topped with a little girl with wings, absolutely gorgeous!... but as this card is for my hubby I thought I'd better leave the fairy child off his card lol!! As it is he probably will not be impressed with the colours or cupcake.... he's more of a rugby/football/beer card man really. Never mind, I enjoyed making it! :) The stamp set is from Oxford Impressions, I love the set but sticking all the stamps onto that backing cushion stuff was crazy!! I got very cross and sticky, but I got there in the end.
I've been on holiday for the last 2 weeks, so apologies for not commenting on your blogs, I'm getting round to you all I promise! :) This was the view from our balcony in Lagos, Portugal..... A beautiful place, well worth a visit if you are wondering where to go next summer!
Oh, do you like my new blog design? I got bored with the pink background so went for the floorboard look instead, still not very interesting though! I'd love to know how other people make their gorgeous blogs, I'd like to add seashells around the edge.... hmmm, maybe I need to google how to do it!
I'm entering this in the Make it Monday challenge.
Thank you for visiting and hugs if you left me a comment, I really do appreciate them! xxxx

Your BD card is beautiful, love the blue in the background. Looks like you were in a gorgeous place for your vacation, well deserved I'm sure. I like the floor board on your background. I would like to figure out how to make a nice header for my blog, I've tried a few times and gave up. Take care, Shirleyx
Such a sweet card Wendy!
