This new giant cupcake stamp is just what I needed to make Maddox's thank you cards! I wanted to use the same basic colors as I did in his invitation, which you can see in this post. I was inspired by this card on Splitcoast, so here's my version:
I thought the crimping on the bottom was just perfect! And I need to use up all these eyelets I still have as we no longer carry them, so this was an ideal opportunity. I put the sentiment on the inside - which is so great because it saves you from having to write the same thing over and over!!
It'll be even better when Maddox can write them out himself! ...not that I'm rushing him. As promised, here is a photo of him on his birthday playing with the balloon bouquet.
He still melts my heart... but then again, so does his daddy. Life is good. ;)

Michele, this is too cute! I love the paper crimped base and the confetti eyelets! Wonderful job!
I just love this card!!! I really need this stamp!!
This is the stamp that I am most excited to get from the new catalog. I didn't order it first because it isn't as easy to show at workshops to everyone but I love it and I LOVE what you did with it! Great card!
I really don't have a need for this stamp set, but I love your idea for using up all those eyelets! Great idea! I'll have to see if I can modify it somehow for an adult theme!!!
/p
