Hello, Cupcake

I created this card to send to my niece in a care package after she spent some time with us this summer. I die cut the "hello" and used tiny type black letters to spell out the "cupcake". I think they are some very old Making Memories letters that I had stocked up on at Michael's. The cupcake and bear are from Mama Elephant and I used a masking technique to get the bear to appear as if he is sitting on top of the icing. I Copic colored him and added some Wink of Stella clear glitter pen to the icing for some shimmer. The border was cut out of glitter paper using a punch that also embossed. The entire panel was foam taped to the front of a white die cut card base.

Hero Arts and Distress Ink

I told you I was making a ton of shaker cards lately. This one is using distress inks to create a blended background to resemble a night sky. I stamped and Copic colored the Hero Arts image and added google eyes for a bit of a whimsical touch. The sequins are a homemade mix of Pretty Pink Posh solid colors. I put foam tape on the back of the purple panel and tied it with a bow. The panel was then adhered to a stitched cut card front.

Cedar Lane

I have been in a shaker card making frenzy lately. My latest creation is using the new Pink Paislee Cedar Lane paper collection and the Lawn Fawn leaf dies. I used the dies to make my own confetti with the pattern papers from the Cedar Lane 6x6 paper pad. I inked and curled the edges of the two larger leaves for the outside of the window and placed them on a bed of gold twine. The heat embossed fall sentiment is from http://kaleidoscopecreationsstamps.blogspot.com.
