Welcome to Cut It Up Challenge 325!
The theme for this challenge is happy birthday.
I knew right away what I wanted to do - birthday cards can be a lot of fun to make and this one was no exception.
The background was stencilled, cut into three sections and placed on a black background. The cupcake and candle were also stencilled and die cut. They were arranged on a black frame and I added some Stickles to the dots and stamped "make a wish" across the icing before brushing that section with a clear shimmer brush. A heat embossed sentiment was placed under the cupcake.
I cut out the candle flame using a craft knife. A piece of vellum brushed with yellow ink was placed behind the opening. A light was placed behind the candle flame and the card front was adhered to the base with foam tape. I added a piece of cardstock with the word PUSH on it. When that is pushed, the light comes on behind the candle flame. I love it and it is always such a surprise for the recipient!
