The 4 AM Wakeup Card



It's like a wake up call, except it's a card. Woke up a little before the alarm this morning, so I took advantage of the time to make a little joke with myself - get it? Huh? HEY CUPCAKE?? tee hee...

Everything's funny at 4 AM, believe me. Depending on when you are reading this, all the amusement may have worn off! Try to fake it for me.

(Oh - this baby is going to a magazine, so please observe my copyright! )

Anyway, it's a very simple card. Well, it WAS a very simple card. I actually finished the entire thing before I realized I had accidentally used Pumpkin Pie instead of Tangerine Tango!! THE HORROR!!! I realized it right when I was tying the bow on the Tangerine Tango Ribbon. GRR. The dang thing was PERFECT! I carefully peeled off the Pumpkin bits and replaced them with Tangerine. Thankfully the card survived. What do you think?

It's a white vertical card base, with Hawaii Papaya DSP, Kiwi Kiss, Tangerine Tango, Chocolate Chip, and Whisper White cardstock. The "Hey" is from the Perfect Day rubon set. Love it. And hey - love me, love my rhinestones!!!

What do you think?

I'm going to be decorating some pumpkins for my Maker Faire booth in a way that will surprise you!! I saw something in a magazine and thought - WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT?

Hope to share soon!

My monthly stamp class is this weekend if you have not signed up yet - let me know!

  3. i saw the clock at 3am, but i had the pleasure of going back to bed. sorry for you that you have to get up in the middle of the night 5 days a week!

    i really like the card, and don't keep us in suspense too much longer about the new punch you're going to be using.
