Cute…right!!! I was tickled with how this turned out! Pretty much love everything about it…This is my kinda card! To me it is fun, crisp, and makes me smile! Doesn't seeing a cupcake make you smile! This is a very versatile stamp set and one that I would definitely have! The Easy Events set covers so many occasions and it looks super on all different sizes of cards! Looks adorable on smaller 3 x 3 gift cards and the look of water coloring here and there brings out your personality and style!
I used several different tools and tricks that make this car super cute but at the same time make is look interesting with the different depths and textures! I used the Chevron Embossing Folder to give the paper a bit of pizzazz with texture before layering it on top of whisper white card stock with "just enough" white peeking out to give it a finishing clean touch! After stamping my cupcake design with the Black Staz On ink, I pulled out dear old Mr. Big Shot and using the Labels Collection Framelits I cut my design out!
As you know…I love using the Aqua painter pens and this is such a quick and easy image to color in a snap! After using a larger Framelit, I cut one in half and layered it over the other and then used the Festive Paper-Piercing Pack and used every other hole to make a perfectly spaced pierced frame around my "cupcake".
Once again, this card design can be used and duplicated for a variety of card themes. When you look at a card and see that it is a birthday card….look at the design further and figure out how you can change up the colors of paper and the stamp to make a completely different look! Why reinvent the wheel if you have a style and you are comfortable with it! Please click here and let me know how you like this card! I think it is so simple and basic but an impact all at the same time! As always, I lined the envelope with the Neutrals Designer Paper and POP goes my cupcake! Just love those Stampin' Dimensionals! Until tomorrow…..thanks for stoppin' by!
