A Passion For Stamps-CAS Birthday Wishes












ETA:Strawberry Freezer Jam Recipe below.  Hi friends, it is the wonderful weekend....we have some fun things planned too....making strawberry freezer jam and the dance recital!  I will share more later about both later!  I have created this CAS card for several challenges, one I cannot remember where it is, if you know please let me know.  It is to use polka dots and stripes(the inspiration photo is shown).  I have used the sweetest cupcake digi, I adore the shape of this cupcake...so cute.  You can get yours here and be sure to check out the other digis that Ruth offers, cool stuff!  I have paper pieced part of it and added stickles for icing and pearl on top.  A super simple card from me today, I hope to bring you more creations this weekend so stay tuned....enjoy!
