This is my first card for the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge: http://priscillastyles.blogspot.com/
This one is with Sunflowers & Dragonfly's image and how YUMBLY is this cupcake - I had so much fun making it!
I stamped the image 4 times and layered the icing and the flowers popping each one up on dimensionsals, as you can see in the close up! Then coloured with my 'trusty' chalks and blender pen. The icing is coloured with pearlised Chalks and has the loveliest shimmer, but you know how it is - you can never capture it!! The icing layer, the flowers and the lemon slice are all popped up on foam dots - I love the dimension they give - and have to add that with all of the cutting out of those tiny flowers, I may have to change my profile photo - I am now cross eyed! LOL!
The Cupcake has been layered into embossed white CS - I used the 'Divine Swirls' folder as I love the look it gives - yummy, creamy swirly, 'dip your finger into' icing - YUMBLY!! All edges have been lightly sponged and layered onto 'plum' coloured CS. The vintage corners are from a RAK from Lesley (aka SuperNan aka my Mum )- thanks Mum these are great....you sent me the perfect colours....now just send me the DieCut and I will be laughing! LOL!! Finally chiffon ribbon and silver thread have been used around the base of the image and a sponged flower along with a silver flower brad with a pearl added - these are to compliment the silver pearls used on the corners - how cute are they - do you get those silver 'balls' on cakes - we loved to eat them as kids!!
