I have changed-up my die storage a bit since this post in 2014 (I now file most of them with the stamp lines), but there are still quite a few dies in my Stamp n Storage Die Cut Box that where I don't necessarily have coordinating stamps.
I went through the box recently and did some purging and organizing. Because they aren't with my stamps, I tend to forget about them, so I pulled out a few cupcake dies from the box for some masculine birthday cards.
The first one uses a Cupcake Wish die set from Echo Park together with some gold embossed letterpress tags I also had tucked away.
I used the Sketch ~N~ Scrap Sketch and paired it with some Eyelet Outlet Matte Enamel Dots (that I love for masculine cards) and a Happy Birthday sticker. I finished with a foam star to top my cupcake.
Next I pulled out paper scraps and the Big Cupcake die by Stephanie Barnard for Sizzix … I love that fun Cherry on top.
I paired it with a sentiment from Taylored Expressions Simple Strips Birthday.
I love the fun bright colors of that first card but both of your cards are super cute! Thanks so much for sharing with us at Sketch N Scrap!
