Cupcards challenges for May

I found two challenges over at Cupcards To Go that I wanted to finish this weekend and make some birthday cards I needed to do.
 The first challenge I did was to use Ruffles on your project.  My take on this was to make a flower using my ruffled lace I had.  I took pictures of the steps since it came out so good.

 These were the supplies I used to make my own sticky back to hold the ruffled lace.  I used a 2" circle punch,  some 2 sided sticky paper, the ruffled lace, and some Doodlebug Bling.

Here is the flower before I put the center in.
