Created this Mardi Gras card with lots of detail. Used Destinations Cricut cartridge for the mask & Mardi Gras words at top of card. Used a Spellbinder die perfect for Mardi Gras since it has a French name & look, Fleur De Lis. Stamped a Stampendous Halloween girl image that since she had a mask and was not just for Halloween in my opinion perfect for the Mardi Gras theme. Stamped the girl image multiple times for paper piecing. Used Perfect Pearls which I've had for awhile, another one of those things I bought and did not know quite how to use & forgot about. Used Grape Perfect Pearls on mask and gold on gear & timepiece. Stamped Stampin' Up 'Celebrate Today' sentiment. Cut some ribbon giving it a fringed look to have it hang from the mask. Added some gems.

Btw, there are a lot of cricut cartridges with cupcakes. You could make your own small box to fit between the cupcake cuts and fairly easy and come up with a similar project:) just an idea!
