I have a folder on my computer called “New Folder” (ha!) that holds all the cards that I haven’t shown you yet. It is quickly becoming “Old Folder” and I’m going to try to get them up here before they’re all retired. Crazy for Cupcakes is one of my favorites. This card was featured in my Birthday Quick Card class using the Sweet Shop DSP – hurry, hurry – it’s going too!
