Yum....don't you just love cupcakes? I know I do. My favorite cupcake is made with a white cake mix, filled with a cream cheese and chocolate chip mixture, topped with fudge frosting. My mouth is watering just thinking about it!!! LOL This cupcake is perfect for all of us who have made their New Year's Resolution concerning weight.....as there are no calories!!! It's too pretty to eat!!! My image is from this week's sponsor Sunflowers and Dragonflies.
I adore this stamp and Beth has several cupcake images to choose from at her store. I had lots of fun creating the layers (there are four-4) and I water colored the image too! I forgot how much fun that is as I haven't done it for a while. I made the flower from the same dp as I used on the card, but I drenched it with water and scrunched it up and let it dry. It gave it a better effect than just a punched flower.

ReplyDeleteCarol, your cupcakes look out of this world delicious and it's a good job you can't eat them, I'd be affraid to ruin it!!! I love all the details you put into your work, especially all those pretty border punches and the sparkles. You truly are an inspiration. Beautiful card both inside and out.
ReplyDeleteHope you are staying warm up there in Georgia! We have weather barely reaching 40 degrees right now....definately not the norm here but a very welcome change. Sounds like your New Year was fun, and that blue moon was amazing! Oh the fire pit....roasting marshmallows...we did that while were there. Not sure about putting the fire pit inside really....is that safe??
Stay warm!
