Triple Play Cupcake...

Hiya!

After a HECTIC weekend, I managed to find a bit of time to play this afternoon and wanted to play along with a few challenges - in fact I managed to combine three in one card! (I know some people are experts at combining challenges but normally I manage two and that's it...) I used the Waltzinmouse sketch challenge for the layout, the CR84FN inspiration for the colours and the Make it Monday technique for the embossed main panel...


Here's the colours and sketch inspiration:


The main panel was partially embossed with PTI's woodgrain impression plate then the embossed part was lightly inked to create a 'table' effect. The cupcake was stamped once on white then on DSP, coloured, pieced and glittered - and of course a button added. The banner was created by punching out a star then cutting off each point - I used linen thread to string it together. I added some PTI satin ribbon to finish.

Thanks for stopping by!

This is such a beautiful card! I haven't tried combining challenges yet but I like that you had a sketch to use because I could have really used one today - I was lacking mojo! TFS!
