Cupcake Day Wishes

Hello! Welcome back to day 3 of OCL/May Arts Swap Week. The card I made today uses an image from Big Birthday Wishes stamp set. The May Arts ribbon is DD14 Grosgrain Polka Dot Ribbon. The dots are flocked! It is soooo cool!

I added a line of Tombow's Mono Multi Liquid Glue behind the stamped image piece and let "dry" until tacky and then hand gathered the ribbon into the glue by pinching and scrunching the ribbon. I used Tombow's Foam Tabs to raise up the stamped panel.

I made a bow with the ribbon and added a hand crocheted flower and Basic Grey brad to the center.

Don't forget to stop by the OCL Blog & May Arts blogs for more inspiration and chances to win fun prizes.
