Welcome Welcome Welcome!
I'm so glad you've popped in today!
It's another Heartfelt Creations Wednesday, and I'm here to share one last card I created with the Sugarspun Collection!
This collection is perfect for so many different occasions... and is perfect for the young and the young at heart....after all, you never outgrow a cupcake!
For this week, I decided to stick with a simple design...sometimes less is more!
I opted to use two decorative die cuts laid over a premade card panel which had the center die cut and then raised to give the project some dimension!

...here's how my project turned out this week...
As mentioned above, I've used one of the 6" x 6" premade card panels from the paper collection and have die cut the circle center so I could later pop it up using pop dots, giving the card some simple dimension. I've inked the circle using Ranger Archival Ink - Buttercup before adhering it to the card base.
I've then die cut two decorative die cuts from white card stock and adhered them to the card base under where the the circle die cut window. I've then trimmed out a cupcake illustrated strip, cut it in half, and then placed half over each of the decorative die cuts. Then I've adhered the circle die cut to the card base using pop dots.
The cupcake images have been stamped onto white card stock using Ranger Archival Ink - Coffee...I thought that would be a softer look than using a black ink. I've used my Stack and Store Daubers to color up the cupcakes images with a combinations of Ranger Archival Ink - Pink Peony, Forget-Me-Not and Buttercup. The cupcakes have been die cut using the coordinating dies and the frosted layer has been adhered to the rest of the image using pop dots. I've then applied the cupcakes using pop dots in a staggered pattern.
To finish off the card I've used some Crystal Ultrafine Transparent Glitter on the cupcake images, as well as all of the preprinted illustrations on the circle center die cut. Several color of Nuvo Drops finish up this beauty...it came together so very quickly and easily!
I do hope you've enjoyed today's share!
Be sure to pop on over to the Heartfelt Creations blog to take in the rest of the wonderfully tantalizing treats the rest of the design team have come up with!
Until next time...
