Happy everything (the gorgeous little images in this set are perfect for adding smaller details to cards).

Party time 

and fond expressions 2

This is what I got up to; I stamped the fond expressions 2 sentiment onto my white card front. I die cut out hexagons using my Tim Holtz stacked hexagon sets. I then die cut a size smaller set of tiles in white card and put them to one side. I blended distress inks through the Fairy tale forest stencil to the card front.

I stamped the cupcakes from Happy everything and sentiment from Party time  onto the cut out tiles adding colour and ink to the edges.

I matted my card front onto black card.

I replaced the tiles, gluing them in place and added some gel glitter pen colour for extra sparkle to the cupcakes.

Finally I adhered my card front onto a white card blank. Here it is finished;
