Well my lovely Mum is 60 today, a very special birthday and she is now officially retired, though she works harder than most people I know!

Here is her card, quite bright very simple on the front……..

But the inside is a little bit special!

I have made the pop up using a very simple technique which I will do a tutorial on later during May.  But for those who can’t wait here is a picture of the mechanics……..

The card is a Basic Black textured card, with a Pink Passion inner and a third layer of Pink Polka dots Designer paper from the Playful Petals Simply Scrappin’ kit.  I have stamped the cupcakes onto Whisper white, coloured them with my lovely new markers and then gone over the  frosting with versamark and heat embossed clear to give a lovely glaze.  The front ‘mum’ is chipboard letters coloured with markers and heat embossed with clear powder.

Happy Stampin’
