Our Little Cowboy scrapbook pages were done using papers and embellishments from the Dakota paper pack from Close to my Heart.


This birthday card is a 12 x 5.5 Twilight card stock folded in half. Next is pink card stock 5.75 x 5 3/16. On top of that to the left is a piece of green patterned paper measuring 3 x 4 15/16.  I had a piece of pink ribbon and applied it to the card.  The balloon stamp and Hope your Birthday's as sweet as you stamp is a Close to my Heart acrylix stamp. The cupcake is cut from the Artiste Circut art cartridge and stamped on it with the Circut Artiste Collection Birthday stamp that goes along with Circut cartridge. The cupcake pops of the page using a pop dot. All of the paper is from the Chantilly paper pack.
The card starts with a piece of pink card stock paper 9 x 5.5 inches folded in half. The yellow piece of paper is 4.25 x 5.25.  The floral piece is 3 x 5.25. The pink strip at the bottom is 4 5/16 x 1 6/16. Topped with a thin piece of pink card stock. The bird, pink glitter gems and paper are from the Chantilly paper pack.
