Happy Birthday

Hello there my crafty friends! Today I am stopping in to share a card that I created for this weeks new tic-tac-toe challenge over at KaDoodle Bug Designs. 

It is a Birthday tic-tac-toe challenge and all of the details on how to enter can be found on the pinned post here.

I used the Polka Dots, Cake, & Sentiment line to create my card. This is a standard A2 sized card. My card base is 110lb white ReCollections cardstock. The pink patterned card mat is from the Doodlebug Design Inc. Swiss Dot Rainbow Petite Prints 6x6 paper pad and the larger polka dot strip is from the Doodlebug Design Inc. Fairy Tales 6x6 paper pad.  I added some twine that I had in my stash, along the polka dot strip to add some interest.

For my paper piecing, I used the adorable "Birthday Slushy" file from KaDoodle Bug Designs.  I uploaded the file into my Cricut Design Space, resized and cut each piece using my Cricut Explore Air 2.  I inked up all of the pieces using Tim Holtz Distress Inks and adhered all pieces together using Art Glitter glue. To finish this cutie off, I added some Stickles to areas of his birthday hat and some Glossy Accents to the sprinkles or candy drops on the cake.

I kept my sentiment straight to the point, and used a "happy birthday" stamp from the Kat Scrappiness Everyday Brush Strokes Stamp Set.

Below is a list of supplies and products I used to create this sweet birthday card:
