Inka Cupcake Sketch
I picked up this Birthday Cupcake set by Inkadinkado this past weekend and I love it — if you can believe, it is my FIRST nicely sized cupcake stamp — too funny, I am always the LAST to get with the program and the trends — LOL!!! Anyway, since I’ve been enjoying my new Inka sets and since Jacksonbelle is running a sketch challenge for Inka stamps, I thought I’d do another. Here’s the link to the sketch, which is at Lynda Benden’s Blog – a GREAT blog to browse if you haven’t been there before!!! Filled with beautiful creations.
Fun card to make. I used some old DP that I have always loved (from Michaels), colored my cupcake with Copics, glitzed it up with some new Martha Stewart glitter in a purple shade, pierced my scallop border, used the Martha Stewart Lace punch, added ribbons, a flower and called it done!!! I did not include a sentiment. Although this is a Birthday set, I really could use this card for other purposes, so to be safe, I left off any sentiment. I like options when the cards are just going to be left here for my future use. I’ll adjust it to my needs when the time arises.
