Petunia Cupcake

Hello again! I seem to have gotten a touch of a second wind and created this card for Mojo Monday sketch #136 and, a brand new challenge

City Crafter Challenge CCCB week # 1 - Cupcake

When I saw Julee's fabulous sketch, I had in mind to use my beloved little Lockhart Petunia cupcake stamp with this Basic Grey Wisteria paper...well, I created this in a Jiff!

I followed the sketch quite closely, adding my sentiment from PTI at the top of the Spellbinder Label that I used and positioned to peek out under the larger print paper. I added a MS border at the bottom and wrapped a vanilla taffeta ribbon around

the front. I popped up and layered my cupcake on a circle of the same Bazzil card stock that I used for the front of the card and then onto a blossom Spellbinder shape cut out of the same tiny print found in the 6 X 6 the Wisteria pad.

I loved how this turned out, especially since it did not take me an hour to create it!

Thanks for looking, and check out the new challenge! I have it linked above.

Purple Wisteria- Zinnias- confused, me too!

Good morning!  I am so behind with challenges and this last card I made isn't even for one of them!  I decided to make this one just for fun without following any criteria, so here it is.  I was really anxious to ink up this new Lockhart zinnia stamp and to use some of this beautiful Wisteria paper from BG.  Now, you know I am not a purple lover, but some flowers and cards are just great matches for this family.  I started by stamping the zinnia image onto a textured white car stock with Memento Tuxedo black ink and coloured with my Copics.  I chose these colours to go with the Wisteria paper and I love how both papers I used are a perfect compliment to SU's River Rock. (can somebody please speak to Shelli about bringing it back as a neutral colour, Lydia, are you reading this?)  I used Martha Stewart's picket fence punch and punched the fence out of Elegant Eggplant, crazy right?  Who ever heard of a purple picket fence, but I do like how the whole card turned out, so, let me know what you think!  Cheers!  Thanks for taking a P{{K
