Outlines Rubber Stamp Company issued a challenge to incorporate a sweet treat into our design. The stamp used is the large Cupcake Square. A cuttlebug embossing folder (Happy Birthday) was used to emboss a piece of Core'dinations black/lime green cardstock. After the embossing process, the raised images were sanded off to reveal the hidden green color. Using Copic markers in the shades of pink, lavender, peach and green, I colored the stamped image. A bit of glitter was added by gluing Swarovski crystals to the design. Two images were stamped and the cupcake was cut from one and "popped" using a pop dot. Once the cupcake square was mounted on the embossed piece of cardstock, May Arts sheer ribbon (pink and green) were tied around in a knot. A flower (Petaloo) was placed d in the center of the knot. The total layers was then affixed to a piece of silver cardstock which was then attached to a cardbase of light green cardstock that was sponge stamped with a dark green (Memento) around the edges. Happy Birthday!!!
Beautiful card Lynn. I'm going to have to start using that embossing folder again. Thanks for the inspiration
