I did say this was a mad manic week, yes? But when I saw Cindy's teapot, how could I not think of these stickers which were on a card waiting for a makeover. So a quick card - and as the week just got more manic, I'll visit the gallery as and when I can.
Since these are for giving out in a hospital I'm not worried about the odd size, no postage needed . This fits a business envelope.
The stickers were a freebie. The original card had pastel flowers stamped and popped up all along the bottom. For the tea-party I replaced those with cupcakes, and to save time I stamped them straight on the base. Coloured the cases with markers, used AppliGlue for the frosting swirl and sprinkled them with gold microbeads. And since it is a tea party, I used a black glaze pen to add polka dots to all the cupcake cases .

What a bright, fun card - and great make over. I have a stash of such cards I need to work on!
BTW, I heard that Betty was excited to get a card from Ireland as well as all over the U.S.

Well, for no time and a quick remake of a card, it sure looks really nice! Love that you added polka dots to the base of the cupcakes! Extra points/cookies from Mother to you!
