Elegant Charms

Good morning my friends! I have a couple of things to share with you today! First I wanted to let you know that JustRite is now selling their new catalog! It is selling for $4.95 and is shipping out starting July 9th. The catalog is 56 pages and contains images of the entire 2011 collection! Order yours HERE! : )
Today's release is called Elegant Charms. I love tags but decided not to use this set in a traditional way......instead I created a flower and leaves for my little birthday cake!
I used my Cricut Expression, Gypsy, and Elmo's Birthday Party Cartridge to create my 5" cake. I stamped my flower usingPapertrey Ink's Spring Rain ink. I used the other flower image and stamped it in Avocado Green. I cut the petals apart and used it for my leaves! I stamped the image on a tag that had been cut using my Sentimental's cartridge. The paper is from Girl's Paperie.
I used Crackle accents for the candles, a bit of twine under my flower, and of course lots of delicious glitter!
And, yes, my card does open! I placed a piece of velcro to the top to keep it shut. : )
Be sure to visit the other DT gals' blogs for more inspiration using this fab new set!! : )
