Creating Cup Cakes

By
Who doesn't like cup cakes? I love them but I'm now on my New Year diet so instead of eating them I am creating them on cards!!


It is so easy to create cup cakes like these using the fab stamp set Create a Cup Cake from Stampin' Up. Even easier is then punching out your stamped images with the new Cup Cake Builder punch - it even punches out the candles - how cool is that?
Being crazy about polka dots I was really excited to see the gorgeous DSP in the current catalogue, it's double sided and I have just used part of one sheet for my card - front and back. The Marina Mist of the paper co-ordinates perfectly with the Midnight Muse card stock and I have also used Midnight Muse and Pool Party inks. I added a splash of red with Cherry Cobbler candles and Summer Starfruit flames.


I also stamped the inside - very simply with a greeting and flower


Materials
Stamps: Create a Cup Cake
Ink: Midnight Muse, Pool Party, Cherry Cobbler, Summer Starfruit, Chocolate Chip, Gumball Green
Card Stock: Whisper White, Midnight Muse
Paper: Polka Dot Parade DSP
Accessories: Cup Cake Builder Punch, Dimensionals
(Items above highlighted in red are Stampin' Up products and are all available in the current Annual Catalogue. I would be very happy to order any Stampin' Up product for you at any time and have it delivered direct to you door - details are at the top of the page).

 We have snow falling - I hate snow. Sorry to be a kill joy but at times like this I really wish that I could hibernate - somewhere warm!!
Hope you are warm wherever you are - see you soon - Jacqueline xx

    I think I should stop eating them and use them on cards instead too Jacqueline! I'm fine with snow as long as I don't have to actually go out in it. Vicky x

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr...

For one reason or another I haven't played this game for a few weeks - you know the one over on  Julia's blog  - go and see if you don't know what I'm on about. I have missed playing along as I love all the lovely comments left by fellow crafters and so I have purposely made time to join in this week. My work space is quite long and this week I have managed to use up all available surfaces .........with mess! starting at the left hand end  This is the devestation left from yestersday's Project Tuesday challenge and some atc making.
