The Shabby Tea Room Week #109 – ‘Birthday Bash’

Good evening ladies,

Tonight I have created an entry for this weeks The Shabby Tea Room Challenge.  The theme this week is Birthday Bash.  Rebekah has asked that we create a birthday card or project inspired by this photo and include a cupcake!

This has been a fun but frustrating project.  Every time I get some cupcakes one of us ends up eating them before I get the project done 🙂

I wanted to do something different so I made a purse shaped gift box that holds a delicious surprise!  I originally planned on using 4 small cupcakes but this holds one large one easily as well.

I have to thank my trusty Sure-Cuts-A-Lot software for helping me create this project.  I would be truly lost without it.

Thank you for visiting my blog and have a great weekend,

My name is Joann and I live in Halifax, Nova Scotia with my husband Miles. We have one son who is in the Royal Canadian Navy. I have worked full time in the Finance and Insurance industry for the past 29 years. I absolutely adore all things paper & glue and have been involved with crafting in some way for most of my life. I have a great admiration for creating projects from paper that may not necessarily be made from paper. When not in my craft room, I enjoy spending time at our cottage enjoying all that nature and suburban life has to offer.
