A while back I went to have a "play date" with my good stamping buddy Loretta (her blinkie/link is on the left) and she was so kind to let me use her new, and I mean really new big shot pro. The one that cuts 12" and wouldn't you know I tried to cut on my own and despite the wonderful instructions, I destroyed one of the shims that came with the machine. I felt so bad and Loretta being wonderful as usual said "Ah, forgetaboutit". My heart just couldn't. So I made this card and cupcake that held a secret $$ to cover the cost of replacing the shim. The cupcake is from Fabulously Artsy tutorial on youtube.com. It was pretty easy to do, but I replaced the crumpled cardtock with flowers and ribbon.
The card makes me giggle everytime I look at it. It was so funny when April accidently cut through my cutting shim. If I hadn'[t accidenlty pulled up the top I'd never have found the hidden money. I can't wait to make some of these for gifts. Thanks so much April, you didn't have too -- honestly! Now we need another play date!
