This is my card for todays color challenge, and boy was it a challenge for me. I had to use the substitute colors since I do not have any of the new In Colors. At first it was very difficult for me to use this combo together, and at first I was not happy with the card but in the end I was pleased. I feel that it is a very universal birthday card which in my opinion is a great thing to have on hand. I ran the Sage Shadow layer through the distressed CB folder. The Cupcake layer is poped up on dimensionals. For the cupcake I water colored the candle, embossed the flame and double stamped and cut it out and poped it up on dimensionals. I used the liquid applique for faux icing and also added some glitter to it for faux sprinkles. For the cupcake wrapping I again double stamped and cut out but also embossed the wrapper in Sapphire color embossing powder.
