This challenge is all about Jellystone Park, baskets, bears, etc. Visit Mothermark's blog at http://mothermark.blogspot.com/ to see the details. I didn't have any bear stamps, and really no great ideas either, but Nancy Williams (nwilliams6) suggested I make a basket with food in it.(thanks Nancy!) I found a little Studio G set of cupcake stamps and cut apart the little cupcakes so that I could make them appear to be spilling out of the basket. This might be the card I give my granddaughter next month when she turns 2, as the sentiment is perfect "You're so sweet" and she is! She would share the cupcakes with Barney and Boo Boo!

I love the cupcakes. That ribbon is perfect for a picnic card. The way the cupcakes are falling makes me think that there is definitely something moving around inside that basket. So cute!!! Glad you came to the teaparty.

WOW a basket full of cupcakes. So cute and very SWEET! Better keep it away from Charlene. She'd have a blast flinging cupcakes too! Awesome card. TFS :0)

this is so cute ... and I love the way the cupcakes appear to be tumbling out. I bought that same stamp ... and I cut it apart too. Much more fun to play with.
Well, I am glad to see more cupcakes at the tea party since everyone was fighting over the one cupcake that I had brought.

Hey there! Welcome to Jellystone Park.....Barney is so looking forward to meeting your cupcakes in person! Snort! What a fun little card....I am happy that Nancy encouraged you to bring a pic-a-nic basket! I love that you got the red and white checked ribbon on this card......goes perfect with a pic-a-nic theme!!!
Come this way, I will introduce you to some of the girls....and don't be shy, if you get something flung at you, fling it back! Snort!

Since I am your gallery neighbor, I hope I have a chance at the cupcakes! How clever to have them falling out - and perfect gingham ribbon and sentiment.
Welcome to the teaparty - it is an addiction, let me tell you.
