Do you sometimes catch a glimpse of a color scheme or pattern and have to run home and try something similar for a card? That happened to me Sunday when a woman walked by with a beautiful knit sweater. It was layers of pastel colors with a white knit pattern. That day I went to the stamp room and layered distress inks on a glossy sheet of paper. Then I embossed with a white background stamp that as far as I know was NBUS (never been used stuff). I think I bought it at a stamp show years ago from Stamp Camp.
The cupcake is a Martha Stewart punch, also NBUS. I scored the colored paper after it was punched. Then used the same punch on a strip of white sparkle paper to make the icing. All the confetti was punched from left over snippets.
The saying that I used just came in the mail and was laying on the table. It was a free gift that came with a Purple Onion order.
This card is going over to the As You See It Challenge where they are celebrating their 100th challenge. The theme of course is CELEBRATE. The challenge ends tomorrow so be quick to check them out.
Tomorrow night the Cardologists will be celebrating with Mrs. B (you know who you are)! Cake, stamping and laughter.
Hope you have a good day.
