Here are more cupcake cards I was able to make today-- 1 more to go before the class on Sunday. Whew!
This is my favorite card. We just got a shipment of the new clear stamp sets by Fiskars and this set contains a bunch of intricate filigree and damask designs. So pretty.. I love all of the stamps in this collection. I stamped the filigree in color box chalk ice blue and then stamped the cupcakes by Impress onto an oval punch out. I then used baby blue liquid pearls and used red stickles for the cherry on top. I used a silver pen to make the cupcake holders. So elegant! I then took a small piece of ribbon and put a glue dot on the back and then used crystal stickles and used it to outline the oval as well as dotting the ribbon. I like to outline stuff in stickles. I think it really makes your cards and invitations come alive!
This next card is a new stamp by Karen Lockhart designs. It's a rose cupcake. The sentiment is by impression obsession. I stamped the bottom of the cupcake onto pretty little papers by A Muse and colored it in orange and then cut it out to give it some dimension.
This next card is made with cupcakes by Hero arts clear "sweets" clear set. I stamped them out three times and colored them differently. The sentiment is by A Muse. I used pinks and green for this card... again, I like to glitter the edges of my cardstocks. I also like to use cupcakes in different ways, it's fun to give them a different look using damask backgrounds and flourishes. Bon apetite!
I love your cupcake cards, they look so yummy!

Lucky me, I was able to see these cards in person at the shop yesterday. While the photos are great...they really don't do justice to the cards themselves. There's a richness in color and detail that can only be appreciated by the naked eye. But oh hey - I'm waaaaay excited for class on Sunday and I'm VERY curious what that 6th card will be...

Aloha. I'm back, how said it that. Anyway I just wanted to share how much I enjoy viewing your website. Always gives me inspiration.
I am so proud of Kathy and her Blog. Finally everyone can see how talented she is. I always say I am a crafter and do fine at what I do, but she is a real artist and her cards show it. I couldn't be happier for her.
Hope to see you soon.
Heidi.
