Sugar Shoppe: Create-a-Cards by Amanda


Amanda here.... I love making and giving handmade birthday cards.  Using Doodlebug's Create-a-Card system makes it extra quick and easy.  The colorful card bases are cut to size and come with coordinating envelopes.  I paired the super darling Sugar Shoppe Collection with Create-a-Card to make some sweet birthday girl cards. 

I added layer upon layer of patterned paper and stickers to this card, along with a treat bag.  Leave the treat bag empty or tuck in a gift card or some cash.  


I die cut flower petals and assembled a flower, arranging the petals to make it similar to an orchid or violet.  
I absolutely love Doodlebug's stitched mini garlands!  I simply cut sections of the garland and adhered them to the front of the card.  It makes for a fun and easy design. 


I tucked the sentiment banner into the window and added a couple of shiny Sprinkles dots.  


Pixie straws and flags are not just for cupcakes!  Use them to create custom embellishments for your cards.  And be sure to break out your Doodlebug sequins to add some extra sparkle.  


I adhered the flags to the card with a double layer of foam squares to keep them in place. 

Have a great day!
