Stampin with Shirley G

My card is created from the Hello Cupcake stamp set (free with a $50 purchase during Sale-A-Bration.  I also used the How Sweet It Is Designer Series Paper.  The Vellum makes the greeting look blurry in the picture, but in real time it is not so.

My design and inspiration come from the Fusion Card Challenge. 

1. The card base is Coastal Cabana card stock cut at 4-1/4″ x 11″ and scored at 5-1/2″ and folded on the scoreline. It is stamped using Versa Mark and the Hello Cupcake Sweet Wishes stamp.  This makes a great background.  
2. A length of Granny Apple Ribbon is wrapped around the card base and secured on the opposite side.
3.  A  3-1/8″ x 3-1/4″ panel of Gorgeous Grape card stock is cut for the background of the focal panel.
4. The focal panel is from the How Sweet It Is DSP and cut 3″ x 3-1/8″.  The mat and focal panel are adhered together using Liquid Glue, then popped onto the Coastal Cabana card base.
5. A panel of vellum is cut 3″ x 3-1/8″ and adhered over the focal panel with Liquid Glue that is carefully put on each corner and then spread very thin so it would not show.  But before the vellum is adhered to the focal panel it is stamped with the greeting in Gorgeous Grape ink.
6. The two cupcakes are fussy cut from another panel of How Sweet It Is DSP and color is added by using Coastal Cabana, Melon Mambo, and Gorgeous Grape Stampin’ Write Markers.
7. Sprinkles are added to the cupcake tops by using Adhesive Backed Sequins and Glitter Enamel Dots.
8. The sentiment is stamped on a 3-3/4″ x 5″ panel of Whisper White card stock in Gorgeous Grape ink using the stamp set Hello Cupcake.  A large cupcake is also stamped in Gorgeous Grape and Granny Apple Green ink.
9. A Gorgeous Grape panel is cut 4″ x 5-1/2″ for the mat.
10. The sentiment panel is adhered to the mat and then the mat is adhered to the card base.

Thank you for stopping by today.  I hope you like my card.  Have a blessed day!
