SISTER STASH - All occasion card with a paper pieced background, a cute cupcake (digital) and some eyelets and paper piercing

Another card I made for my sister from the stash of paper crafting supplies she left at my house a few years ago!!  I have enjoyed the process!!!  I started this card with a large red card (8.5" x 5.5") which will fit in her envelopes.  I added a paper pieced background using two coordinating background papers by simply cutting three strips and then cutting them randomly across so the cuts did not line up.  I used a colour printed cupcake image (digital) which I downloaded from CLKER. I layered it onto a deep red textured paper and added red and white eyelets.  Have not used those in quite a while.  They always add interest and texture.   I trimmed the bottom edge long and then punched it with the scallop border punch (StampinUP).  I backed it with a white one just off setting the scallops a bit for a fun effect.  I added three embossed lines using my score tool and it was ready to be applied to the front of my card using 3D foam tape.  This would work well for a birthday or a sweet thank you!!            Therese
