Strawberry Cupcake

Here I am, lazing by the pool, drinking strawberry daquiris... yeah right??? I wish....
The closest I will get to a daiquiri today is the photo over at TotallyPapercrafts, which is what they would like you to use for your card inspiration this week.
I chose to use the strawberries and make a strawberry cupcake card.
The cute cupcake stamp is from Simon Says Stamp, and I added the Strawberries with a WOJ stamp from the summer 09 collection.
The strawberries were coloured with Copics and then I used Glossy Accents on them to give them some shine.

I also have a new toy to play with.... a new lens for my camera. So my pictures from now on will be brighter, sharper and my cards will be level... Ha! ha! I live in hope!

Recipe
  • Stamp - Cupcake and text, Simon Says Stamp, Savor Sweet Cupcake, coloured with Copics and added stickles glitter.
  • Stamp - Strawberry from WOJ Summer 09 Collection, coloured with copics and glossy accents.
  • Design Paper - DCWV, Nana's Nursery, Baby Girl
  • Blooms - X cut punch
  • Ribbon and Card Candy ffrom my stash.
