Gliter, A Tag, & A Cupcake.....It's a Party!

Happy Friday the 13th!

 

Challenge #12..Cakes, Cakes, and Cupcakes...is going on over at the challenge blog.

 

 

Here's my take on this challenge.................. 

 

 

 

I started out with a plain manila tag and inked it to coordinate with the paper I chose for my cupcake wrapper.

 

I stamped the background with the large heart and 'wishes' from the Sew Sweet Stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black.  I also misted the background with Perfect Pearls Mist spray.  Because I inked the tag with distress ink, the liquid mist reacted with them...I halted the reaction with my heat tool.  :-)

 

The cupcake (also from the stamp set) was stamped on both patterned and plain paper.  I cut the frosting out of the plain paper image, adhered some Seedless Preserves Distress Glitter, and attached it on top of the patterned paper image. 

 

 

 

A bit of Timeless Twine, and the tag was finished.  

 

Happy Crafting!!

Happy Wednesday

  Our theme this challenge is Red, White, & Blue.

HERE'S my layout.............

Each year our small city has a fireworks show on the lake. And every year, we take the kids. So I thought I'd start putting the pictures in a scrapbook. =) This will be the first page.

I take my inpsiration from my paper and sketchs. So when I ran across this Mojo Monday sketch, I thought PERFECT.

For the basic layout, I imported the sketch into my Silhouette Studio Software and created all the shapes.

I used Get Inky's Joyful Jar Drinks set. The stamps gave just the right amonut of interest for this piece. The stamps (Love, Life, & Live) are actually three seperate stamps. So I placed them on my paper, between the stripes where I liked them. Then, I used my stamp press and was able to stamp them repeatedly without any adjust to the stamps' placement.

I used the same technique to stamp them on the bottom left corner of my layout. I also added the three dots from the Joyful Jar Drinks stamp set.
