Sometimes all you need is one part of a punch to create the basis for a design. In this instance I've used just the cupcake base from the Cupcake Builder Punch to make a pedestal for my Fox and Friends animals in this fun circus themed birthday card.
The Poppy Parade Red card stock was run through a crimper before being punched so as to create the rippled effect in the pedestal. Each of the animals has been stamped in different colours and then carefully cut and layered so each is not only multi-coloured but has nice dimension too.
This card was a lot of fun to make and I will have some available in my Etsy store soon.
