Paper Wings Prouductions: :You make Life Sweet

Today I'm sharing a card I made with the Hey Cupcake stamp set. I chose the little cupcake to stamp, heat emboss, and watercolor.

I use distress ink + my Tim Holtz watercolor brush after I heat embossing the stamped cupcakes with white fine detail embossing powder. Then I fussy cut them and did the same technique with the cupcake stand. I didn't want the whole stand - it was too large for my cupcakes! - so I fussy cut just the top part of the cupcake stand for my card. Always be on the look out for ways to make your stamps go further and work for your needs!

My sentiment is also from the Hey Cupcake stamp set, which I heat embossed with a coordinating pink embossing powder. I added a spot of watercoloring to my base using the same distress inks I used on the cupcake frosting. I think it helps to ground my sentiment.

Then I adhered the cupcake stand and my cupcakes with pop dots.

Thanks for looking!
