To enter just leave a comment on the Ellen Hutson Classroom blog and the Concord & 9th blog by 12pm PST on December 26th.
I had lots of fun with the images and dies in this set. I started by securing the sprinkle stamp and paper in my MISTI and stamping several times to create a decorative background layer. I attached the layer to the card base using ATG adhesive. I cut the Lawn Fawn Fancy Scalloped Rectangle Stackables layer, secured it in my MISTI and stamped the sentiment. I attached the sentiment layer to the red layer using ATG adhesive and then applied thin strips of mounting tape to the back and attached to the card base.
I cut the cupcake top out in white and the bottom in red. I crimped the bottom to add dimension. I applied white embossing paste to the top using a Sofft spatula. When the paste was totally dry I attached the tiny heart sprinkles all over it using glossy accents. I cut two little leaves off of a stem from the Impression Obsession Leaves and Stems set and attached it along with one additional heart to the tippy top of the cupcake with glossy accents for a sweet embellishment. I think this looks good enough to eat. I am hoping there is a chocolate cake underneath all that frosting.
