Cupcake Wishing You the Best Birthday Ever!

Cupcake Wishing You the Best Birthday Ever! 
Initially, I plan to make some thank you or hello cards as I do not have these on my stash. But after seeing the Fusion Card Challenge - Valentine Cupcake challenge, I decided to use my long forgotten cupcake image. However, instead of Valentine's, I prefer birthday sentiment since tomorrow will be Valentine's Day and I do not need one now.

Cupcake Wishing You the Best Birthday Ever! - Original Sketch 
First, stitched circles are die cut from white cards stock and stamped with the cupcake image. They are then colored using Copic markers.

Close-up: The sentiment - mirror sketch
Two (2) strips are trimmed from yellow cards stock for the sentiment. Four (4) thin strips are trimmed from dark purple leftover card stock. The sentiment stamped onto the yellow strips with one on the far left and another on the far right. When assembled, these cards will mirror each other. The yellow strips are attached to a blue and red card base. The purple stripes are attached above and below the yellow stripe to make it stand out.

Cupcake Wishing You the Best Birthday Ever! - Mirror Sketch
The cupcake images are attached to the card base as in the sketch, with one as original position as a sketch and another one as the mirror image. They are attached to the card base using foam for some dimensional instead of a flat card.

Finally, some glitters are applied to the hearts topping as no birthday should be celebrated without glitter, right? :)
