The base of the card is Pool Party then it's a piece of Sweet Shop ds paper. I used the Petite Pairs stamp set and stamped the saying down a piece of Calypso Coral, using Soft Suede ink. Added another piece of Sweet Shop ds paper and punched out a 2 1/2" Whisper White circle. Put the big cake sticker on it and added the ribbon.

The base of the card is Calypso Coral followed by a layer of Soft Suede. The Whisper White card stock was ran through the Big Shot, using Perfect Polka Dots embossing folder. I added a piece of cupcake paper from the Sweet Shop specialty designer series paper. Put on the Calypso Coral ruffled ribbon. I punched out the scallop circle punch in Soft Suede and then a whisper white circle using the 1 3/8" circle punch. Finally to the stickers, if you look at the package of stickers, there are 4 sets of cupcakes that are in groups of 3, well I just cut them apart and added one to the card. Put a couple of pop dots on the back and it's done!

Picture inspired card…….
One of my favorite yahoo groups, SSUS, has a challenge every week and a few weeks ago this picture

was our inspiration to create a card. I loved the colors and polka dots and this is what I came up with

I started with a base of Whisper White card stock and then took another piece and ran it through the Big Shot, using Perfect Polka Dot embossing folder. The flowers are from Bordering on Romance, in the Occasion Mini catalog. I stamped the flowers onto the Whisper White cs, using basic black ink and then I stamped the image again on a scratch whisper white cs. I colored in the main image using SU markers and on the scratch image, I colored in just the 3 flowers, cut them out, applied pop dots and attached them on the top. Finally I added Rhinestone Jewels to the center of each flower. I used Sincere Salutations and stamped the saying down the side, added a little Melon Mambo cs and the card is finished.
Supplies:
- Bordering on Romance and Sincere Salutations stamp sets
- Whisper White & Melon Mambo card stocks
- Basic Black & Melon Mambo ink pads
- SU Markers
- Rhinestone Jewels & pop dots
- Big Shot & Perfect Polka Dot embossing folder
Thanks for stopping by! I loved having you visit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Happy Stampin'~
