I used the Sock Monkey stamp set, some faux stickles to jazz up the balloons, and my new Texturz Plates Set #4 for my Big Shot on the Top Note layer after spritzing some rubbing alcohol on the Riding Hood Red cardstock to get a nice, crisp imprint.
This card and giftwrap could easily be adapted for Valentine's Day by switching out the cupcake and balloons with the heart from the stamp set.
If you'd like to make your own birthday gift and card set, you can order the supplies online anytime at my Stampin' Up! website at http://2stampis2b.stampinup.net, just click the Shop Now button and choose me, Michelle Tech, as your demonstrator to get the preferred pricing.
Remember, you DO NOT need to wait for a workshop to order!
