Today is my step mother’s Birthday and she’s 70 Years old. Rachel is an amazing woman and I couldn’t ask for a better step mom! She’s is beautiful inside and out so I had to create a special card for her.
To change the cupcake (there is hearts on it) I traced the outside of the cupcake and then stamped the flowers on top. I was looking for one of the creations that you see on the fancy cupcakes and cake shows. The butterfly is in the background of a stamp so I stamped it many times, colored them with Copic markers and applied Gloss Accents. I cut some of the wing to paste on the inside so when I bent them sideways you would see the top layer instead of the underside. I hope I’m making sense??
Here is an adorable picture of Rachel and my dad. Happy BIRTHDAY RACHEL. I love you!
