Show Off Much?

Before I explain my post title...here is the card for today's 365 Cards challenge. The challenge for today is to have some sort of paper piecing on your card. I used to LOVE to paper piece, but since I've had to wear reading glasses it's become something of a chore! (Let's not go there, folks, please?!) At any rate, here is the card I came up with.

I used some left over Basic Grey Bittersweet paper and the printable stamps from The Cutting Cafe. I pieced the cupcake from BG paper and some kraft paper. Then I added the "sprinkles" and the heart. I jazzed the cupcake up with glaze and glitter pens.

This is pretty simple, but it's a paper pieced item, so it counts. Besides, I love those cupcake images and we did not get to use them enough for The Cutting Cafe Week at 365 Cards a few weeks back!

Now for the part about my title...it's pretty obvious that I'm a challenge cheater and a show off right? Well, last week I participated in a challenge for the Pile it On blog and "someone" from over there tried to start a riot over here because I did not use enough ribbon! So, I made a new card, with 4 kinds of ribbon on it! Because I do NOT want a riot on my hands!

I used some of that flower ribbon that I used on a card the other day. This stuff is so pretty! Plus some crochet ribbon, some sheer ribbon, and some thin grosgrain ribbon. Whew! This paper is Crate Paper and the goofy stamp is from Stampin' Up. However I think it was Frankenstein's Monster who said this, and not Dr. F himself. (LOL)

Also, during 365 Cards Cosmo Cricket week I took some static from "someone" who said they wanted to see me use the Girl Friday paper to make a boy card. I had used something else...so, just to SHOW OFF, here is a boy card using the Girl Friday line. The backside of some of the pink paper is blues and whites. HA!

I used another old foam stamp from SU and punched out some balloons. The ribbon is a left over from an ASD kit.

Ok, all you hecklers! Are you happy?!

ETA: Disclaimer - this post is all in good fun. I am just having a laugh with the "hecklers" in my life. They love to tease me and I love to tease back. I fear I've given off the vibe that I was either upset or trying to be a "people pleaser." Neither is further from the truth! LOL Sometimes my humor tends to be a bit...sarcastic, shall we say? We are all here to have fun - or else!
