Cupcake Birthday Cards- Thursday's Throwback Challenge

I made these two cards for my nieces, Cheyenne and Savannah.  Their birthday party is next month in December but it popped into my head when Emma at http://www.creativetimeforme.com/  challenged us to make a card incorporating some sort of food.  What is better than a cupcake on your birthday, right?  Cheyenne will be turning 4 and Savannah will be turning 1.  Their birthdays are only three days apart.  Can you believe it?  You can tell when their parents are getting busy..heheh. Just kidding.  I hope I didn't offend anyone.  I am in a silly mood this evening. :)
I seriously love these challenges.  I have never had more fun creating things and sharing them.  Even though I have never won any challenge I've entered, I am enjoying every minute of creating.  So blessed to be off track this month to really get into this month!  Loving it!  Anyway, I'll quit rambling on now.....enjoy my cards. 
Oh, I almost forgot.  I used the Gypsy Wanderings Cartridge to make the shape of the cupcake card and the cherries.  The 1st and 4th numbers and letters were cut using the Tear Drop Cartridge.    The Happy Birthday Stamp is from http://www.heroarts.com/.  And the cute little cherry faces are of course from Peachy Keen's Stamps Everyday Character Face Assortment.  The beautiful green jewels are from the $1 bin at Michaels and I also used Pink Stickles I purchased at Michaels.
