Make a Cake Birthday Card and Baby Boutique Card

Had the best time making a birthday card for my sweet niece Britta.  I got to use all my new goodies from Stampin' Up! plus some old favorites.  Wish I had come up with this idea on my own but I cased it from a similar one that I saw on Mary Fish's blog.  I just loved the Tangerine Tango and the Lucky Limeade together.  It just seemed to say "Sunshine & Fun".  Perfect for a summer birthday.

The Make a Cake stamp set is great.  It has flags, a pinwheel, and another cake layer to add..  Lots of fun ideas floating in my mind.

My wonderful neighbor had her baby boy yesterday so I decided to do the same card using the new Baby Boutique stamp set.  Isn't the turtle priceless?  And the booties are so sweet...

It was nice to use the Bitty Banner Framelits.  It was so much easier than cutting my own banners.  I have never been able to get the edges quite right.
