* Vera Lane Studio: Cupcakes

Hello Friends!

Once again I'm sharing my weekly DT post for Vera Lane Studio.

Who doesn't love Cupcakes? Haha - I didn't see many hands raised in the air :)
The latest digi set, released today, has 5 gorgeous cupcakes, a donut, a candle and 2 sentiments. 

Here are my makes:

I made the background by stamping with an embossing folder. I used Memento inks in Rose Bud and Dandelion to add colour the inside of a blossom patterned embossing folder. After spritzing with water I placed the card in the folder and ran it through my machine. 

Firstly, I made a couple of tags:

The first tag background was embossed, whilst the second tag was just printed with the embossing folder. Each tag was inked around the edges with Picked Raspberry distress ink. 

The cupcake images were coloured with markers; some iridescent glitter was applied to the frosting and the cherry was coated with glossy accents. A small doily was die cut from gold textured paper and some glitter tape was used as a base for the cakes. The cupcakes were popped on foam tape for a bit of dimension.

Next are a couple of cupcake cards: 

  

The cards were made in the same way as the tags, but this time the embossed background  was matted on to shimmery gold card. The 'Happy Birthday' sentiment is part of the Cupcake set and the 'Enjoy' sentiment is from the Doodle Collection.
