Cupcake Birthday

Howdy all! So sorry for the lack of posts! 'Tis the season right? The season to be SOOOO busy you can't find time to stamp! I'm feeling very behind this year!! No ColorLab challenge today. We had an administrative mix up, but hopefully we'll be back next week with great challenges to finish out this year!

Here is a card I sent a friend recently for her birthday. A side-step card, with cupcakes! And glitter! Too fun!! Here is the view from the front:


And, one more from the side so you can see the steps:


The "glitter" is Iridescent Ice embossing powder. For the cupcakes, I stamped them first, inking with markers in Early Espresso & Melon Mambo. Then I cut them out and covered them with Versamark ink. Sprinkle on the embossing powder and heat. For the front panel, I stamped it first, also inking with markers. Then I covered the entire Very Vanilla piece with Versamark and added the embossing powder. After embossing I added Rhinestones to the hats.

Hopefully I'll have a few things to share this month, but it may be sparse!! We do have club this weekend, so I'll have some ornaments to share after that. Sketch Frenzy Friday is always here on Friday, and next week ColorLab should be back on Thursday! Hope you all are enjoying the start of the Holiday Season and NOT stressing out! I'm headed to the tread mill for a bit, then on to a day of projects!! Thanks for stopping by, hope to see you again here VERY soon!!
