Happy Birthday, Cupcake!

I just received the Patterned Occasions Sale-a-Bration stamp set a few days ago.  What a cute set and at a great price....FREE... with a $50. purchase of Stampin' Up! products!  I thought the cupcake would work great for my Technostamper's Sketch Challenge 252 card also.

I used the Patio Party Designer Series Paper and the colors of Baja Breeze, Primrose Petals, Summer Starfruit, Whisper White and Midnight Muse from that paper.  The little cupcake from the set worked great for the focal point in the sketch.

I used Stampin' Write Markers to ink up the cupcake before stamping on Whisper White.  I omitted the words, then later inked them and stamped on Summer Starfruit cardstock.

The Primrose Petals was dry embossed with the Polka Dots Embossing Folder and Big Shot. The cupcake paper was adhered to a layer of Midnight Muse that had one edge treated with the Scallop Border Punch.

I added Dazzling Diamonds Glitter to the cupcake icing and heart before layering it over the Primrose Petal Scallop Circle and Baja Breeze circle that had been pierced using a circle template from the Festive Paper Piercing Template Pack.  I love those paper piercing templates!
