ahhh yes! 2 of my favorite things, coffee and cupcakes! :) so far all of my sneak peeks have been from the new cupcake builder set, and today i have a sneak peek from a muse's new baking set but it is cupcakes again, lol! :) both sets will be available starting tonight at midnight so be sure to check them out here! the baking set includes this little cupcake, along with lots of other fun images, perfect for the upcoming holidays and any homemade gifts you might be baking! i have seen some awesome sneak peeks from other a muse creative team members for this set so be sure to go check them out!! for this card, i wanted to make a coffee themed birthday card for my friend that i could slip a starbucks gift card into so i decided to create a little pocket. i flipped the notecard so the fold was down, and folded the top of the card inwards to create the gift card pocket. then i attached the oval to the card with pop dots just at the top so that the folded panel could slide right under the bottom of the oval! i know i'll be giving some gift cards this holiday season so i think i may be making a bunch of these! :) i hope you enjoyed all of the sneak peeks! be sure to check out both new clear sets on the a muse site after midnight tonight! have a great day and thanks for visiting! :)
