Cupcake Inspirations Challenge 319


Hello dears! Sorry I've disappeared on you... ! I'm here today to share a card that I made for this week's Cupcake Inspirations challenge! It's a special challenge for us because we're collaborating with my dear friend, Heather from Fresh Brewed Designs with these fabulous cupcake and coffee images that she designed! And of course, we have the perfect inspiration for you...



The DEEtails:

The adorable image that I used today is one that Heather designed especially for us! I colored in the mug, cake portion, and hands and feet of the image, then added a few textural elements. I mixed up some embossing powders to create the coffee, and filled in the mug with my VersaMark pen. Then I used some texture paste mixed with some Very Vanilla reinker to add some fluffy frosting. The sprinkles were diecut from the Audrey Cutaways by Winnie & Walter. The cupcake "wrapper" was printed on the Sweet Dreams DSP and layered onto my image. The background is a layered mix of a diecut from the Audrey Cutaways, some pretty patterned paper from Dear Lizzy Neapolitan Paper Pad, stamped with the Heart Ink Splatter from Your Next Stamp inked with Baked Brown Sugar. I layered on some Kraft cardstock, which I ran through my paper crimper and added a strip of Pool Party Cotton Ribbon. The sentiment was created with the thanks sentiment from the Greetings Thinlits layered over some Emmitt Alphabet diecut letters. Of course, I sprinkled on some sequins. :) Sorry, I probably should have taken a close up of the texture, but I hope you like it!
