Hello!
Happy Monday! Hope you all had a lovely weekend!
I was personally hoping to get more crafting and blogging in but sadly my power was out most of Saturday, the weather wasn't even that bad, I don't get it! Oh well, I did manage to create this cupcake card for The Card Concept Challenge.
The yummy looking cupcakes in their photo inspired my card. I also really wanted to use this set from Mama Elephant that I have had for a bit and have yet to use it till now. I believe my card would fit into the clean and graphic category for this challenge.
I used pistachio pudding cardstock as my card base and then white cardstock to create my subtle background with a chevron stencil and some pool party ink. I stamped my cupcakes on separate white cardsctock (120lb from SSS) colored them in with Copic markers and then cut them out to adhere onto my card. I stamped both sentiments with Versa Mark ink and heat embossed with black and gold embossing powder. I covered my cupcake tops with some Wink of Stella glitter pen but sadly it doesn't show up well in the photo. To finish it off I added some random silver sequins.
Hope you enjoyed my cupcake card! Thank you so much for stopping by!:)

What a sweet and yummy card. Your cupcakes look absolutely delish, and I really like that subtle chevron in the background.
ReplyDeleteI love the subtle chevron background. You can't see it right away but it still adds to the card. Clever! Always nice to find a fellow Canadian crafter!
ReplyDeleteI really like the chevron bsckground. And what a great idea to use two different embossing powders for the sentiment! Really sweet card.
