I created a silhouette image of the
larger butterfly from the butterfly circle set and cut a whole bunch
of them from various colored vellum using my electronic cutter. I
then inked up the stamp using Perfect Medium, placed the vellum cut
out onto my inked stamp and then embossed with white embossing
powder. I ran a piece of red
vellum through my Big Shot machine with the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots
folder, hit the height points with the Perfect Medium and embossed
with the white then punched out a bunch of small Sakura flowers.
Adhered both the butterflies and
hearts to my puffed icing. Added a pale pink half pearl to the
centers of the flowers. Stamped the cherry (Flourishes set #59),
painted with watercolors, dried and added Glossy Accents, dried and
cut around the cherry image, adhered to tip of icing. Can't have a
cupcake without a cherry...
Using my cupcake shape created the
easel shape. Adhered the cupcake to the front panel and added a
small scallop circle die cut (Spellbinders) to the bottom to act as
my stopper. Sponged with Distress Festive Berries.
Stamped the "Love..." piece with
various Just Rite alphabet stamps (Curlz, Brayton), then die cut
with Spellbinders Classic Hearts set, sponged some of the red around
the edges.
Wrote the words "it's a ...." with a
micron pen, cut out and used the eyelet lace punch on one end and
just cut around the other end, adhered to liner.
I die cut the largest scalloped
circle from decorative paper (Paper Roots stash), as well as part of
the base of my card. Adhered the decorative piece. Sponged some of
the red around the open area, embossed with Cuttlebug "Musical
Flourish" folder. Die cut the next scalloped circle down, sponged
with the red and adhered to the decorative circle. Stamped the
butterfly circle with Versafine Black Onyx, clear embossed and die
cut with the next scalloped circle down, sponged with Scattered
Straw, Added the "Hugs" brad and adhered to layers. Adhered the
little buttons tied with variegated thread. Added red Stickle dots
to the scallops.
Note: part of the scalloped circle
between the decorative layer and the sponged red layer is unadhered
for the small scalloped circle to slip under. |
