Welcome to our Create with Stamping Friends Inspiration Monday challenges. This week’s inspiration challenge is a yummy cupcake! Wouldn’t you like to see that on your plate for your birthday?
LAYERS OF BEAUTY
I’m actually shocked on how much I pull out my Layers of Beauty Stamp Set! This time I only used a portion of the large image for the rose on the top of my cupcake and I colored it with Stampin’ Blends! I was even more surprised that I have NO current cupcake images in all the stamp sets I own! I need to look into that!
Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Soft Sea Foam cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- A 3-3/4 x 5 layer of Unbounded Beauty Designer Paper was added on top.
- The circle from Spotlight on Nature Dies was cut from Smoky Slate cardstock and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- I used the rosette maker Round We Go Die for the cupcake liner; a portion was cut from Unbounded Beauty DSP and the sides were angled. It was added to the circle with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The cupcake was hand-cut from Very Vanilla cardstock and added behind the top of the cupcake liner.
- The smallest rose from Layers of Beauty was stamped with Memento Black Ink on Basic White cardstock and colored with Petunia Pop and Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blends. It was hand-cut and added to the top of the cupcake with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Three of the leaf clusters were cut with the Layers of Beauty Die from Soft Sea Foam cardstock and added around the sides of the cupcake liner and behind the flower.
- Hello from Unbounded Love Stamp Set was stamped on Soft Sea Foam cardstock with Memento Black Ink and cut with the Layers of Beauty tag die.
- Two pink Shiny Sequins were added to the liner to finish it off.
You don’t know how I struggled making this card, but it worked! OK, check out Debbie’s Inspiration Monday card over on Create with Stamping Friends!
