Hello! How's your week going? Hope it's all good! Buddy and I are in the craft room getting some stuff done tonight while DH is at the gym. A little quiet time to get caught up. Plus, I need to go to sleep early tonight. I'm pooped. I think all this heat we're having has zapped all the energy right outta me.
I made this fun little card last week and have been waiting to share it with ya! Combined a whole bunch of stuff together in this one!
The background is embossed with a pretty new embossing folder from Lifestyle crafts. The cupcake was cut with PTI dies and felt. The large cream layer shape is also from PTI. That cute litte sentiment is from Hero Arts!
When I went to put my layers together, I thought that the cream circle was too plain. I got out my background stamps and really liked how this one looked. I stamped in Linen Distress Ink.
I used a sparkly button for a flower and hand cut those tiny green leaves. I thought I would 'pop' some more of the green by layering a circle of it. Purple and green is a beautiful color combination....
I used my background stamp to stamp on my teeny pennant also. You can see it here in the background. This kind of ties everything together nicely. :-)
I found this on Pinterest and HAD to share it! Hee hee!
A wish for you....have a cupcake-y kind of day everyone! Mwah. See you soon.
This is so adorable, absolutely love that cupcake!

Love that sweet felt sweet! *smile* The shiny-ness of the button reminds me of a Jolly Rancher (yum). And I like the script background touches. I pinned a quote the other day that had me guffawing out loud. It said "I have so much to do. I'm going to bed." Lol.

Love the purple color!
Funny how you mentioned the other day it is not a frequent color choice for you. Nice use of different textures.

OMGosh, this is sooooo cute, Wanda! I love everything about this. Such a gorgeous color combo. I tell you....I'm usually scared of purple but I absolutely adore the purple you used here. Such a perfect match for the cream and green. Loving the felt cupcake and the glitter button. The hand-cut leaves are such a perfect addition. And fabulous stamping with the background script. LOVE it all!
