Laurie here from Stamping Up North sharing a 4th of July card with you today featuring Cheery Lynn's sweet cupcake die.
Cupcakes have been so popular the last few years, the flavors and designs are endless. I love going to our hometown cupcake store and picking some out for special occasions. It's always so hard to choose! I was inspired by some cute red ,white and blue cupcake liners to make this 4th of July cupcake for my card.
I added a bow from the Christmas Wreath set.and some little pierced stars for decorations. I love the swirl design on the cupcake icing, and thought about doing some inlaying. Instead I kept it all red so the stars would really show. I backed it on a pierced circle, and added a few more stars and an enamel dot in the center of the bow. I didn't add a sentiment, as there was already one on the designer paper.
I had so much fun with this card, that I made a bunch more...birthday cupcakes, Christmas cupcakes, and some Halloween. I'm putting together a set and hope to share them soon!
Here's a list of the dies I used:
Have a great day!
The cupcake liner is the most realistic one that I have seen.....love it with the frosting on top. The use of the stars was a great idea and you've placed them so perfectly. Absolutely adore this card and wishing I had a nicely frosted cupcake to eat right now.
