Shaped cards look great. I used the same paper for the cupcake cases sticking it dowm with glue. decided on three different types of icing on the cakes.On the first I stuck down pink paper with a wavy pattern so it looked like icing I stuck the pink flower on the top down with a sticky pad so it stuck out. For the second I used white paper to make it look like white icing and I stuck this down with sticky pads also so it stuck out. I whole punced some different coloured paper to use for sprinkles. For the last cake I used a premade icing top I had brought from a set.
The letters for the sentiment are from a great set of letters I had brought from "The Works".

Iris folding - 5 tulips


I used the tulip template and added on a few more tulips. I decided to try out different patterns for each larger tulip. I used a different colour in each tulip. For the two smaller tulips I covered the back in one colour so it was one plain colour. I feel this makes the larger tulips stand out more. I used a thin dark green marker to draw the stems and then the same for the boarder around the card. I stuck on a yellow sentiment so your eye was draw from the top to the bottom of the card.

Decoupage tatty teddy


Backing the image and sentiment on the same paper as the backing paper brings the card together. I used a tatty teddy decoupage set. I used sticky pads on each layer. I chose the pink backing paper to match the pink on the perfume bottle.

Iris folding balloon card - Blue

This card is made the same way as previous Iris folding balloon cards. I added blue ribbon and a blue sentiment that had been stuck on the same blue pattern as one of the papers I had used for the balloon.
