When my kids were younger, weekends meant birthday parties.  It seemed as if one of my kids, if not both, received an invitation almost weekly. And that meant that I spent lots of time making cards for my kids to include with their gifts. 

As soon as I saw this Build a Cupcake punch, I knew that it would create fast and fun cards for birthday parties. These little cards are 3″ x 3″ and fit perfectly into the Mini Square Envelopes (107309). And the cards were really quick to make!  The cards were created almost entirely from punches.  The only stamping is the Happy Birthday greeting from the Create A Cupcake stamp set.

I hope you like these Simple Saturday cards. Have fun stamping this weekend!  
 

 I think this cupcake colour combination with Real Red and Chocolate Chip is my favourite. I love the new Glimmer Paper!

Little girls love pink so this card combines Regal Rose with Chocolate Chip.

I made this cupcake using Baja Breeze with the Chocolate Chip for a little boys birthday.
