Heartcraft Paper ~ Heart Cupcake

Hi everyone,

Today I am showing you my fourth and final creation for the month of August 2018 that I made for Heartcraft Paper design team to show you all! Click on each image for a much larger and clearer view. 😊 I do apologise in advance for no process photos for this blog post.

Ok...lets have a look at what I made! 😄

Now lets see how I made it!

First I grabbed one piece of Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Solar White cardstock and cut it down to 11 inches by 4 1/4 inches with my Fiskars trimmer and folded it in half while using my Teflon Bone Folder to make it fold nicely, this will be my card base. I then chose the digital stamp I wanted to use "Heart Cupcake" and cropped and resized it to about 1 14/16 inches wide by 3 1/8 inches tall on a Word document and then printed it onto some X-Press It Blending Card so I could use my Copic markers.
I then used my Brother Scan N Cut to cut out the "Heart Cupcake" image.
After a couple of days of letting the ink set on the X-Press It Blending Card I grabbed the following Copic markers to colour in the "Heart Cupcake" image (E21, E59, R29, R81, BV02 and YG41).
I went around the edges of the cupcake image with a Memento Tuxedo Black marker pen to make it look more tidy.

I used a piece of patterned paper from an American Crafts 6x6 inch paper pad using my Sizzix Big Shot to cut it with a die from My Favorite Things called A2 Stitched Rectangle STAX Set 2 (4" x 5 1/4") which will be the card front and also the background for the "Heart Cupcake" and sentiment.
I adhered the background with some 1/4" sized Scor Tape onto the card base.

I used a piece of patterned paper from a Lawn Fawn 6x6 inch paper pad using my Sizzix Big Shot to cut it with a die from My Favorite Things called Inside & Out Stitched Circle STAX (3 3/8"). I used some Tombow Multi Mono liquid glue to glue the "Heart Cupcake" image onto the Lawn Fawn patterned paper. I then used 1/4" sized Scor Tape to stick the circle onto the card base.

I altered a die from My Favorite Things called Stitched Fishtail Flags STAX (5/8" x 4 1/2") to make a double sided stitched fishtail banner for my sentiment. I then used a Copic marker (BG10) to colour in the banner. I used Lawn Fawn's Happy Happy Happy stamp set for the sentiment using my Tim Holtz Travel Platform with My Favorite Things Hybrid Ink in Black Licorice.
I adhered the sentiment with 1/4" sized Scor Tape onto the card base.

I ended up adding some Wink of Stella with the clear brush pen onto the "Heart Cupcake" wrapper to add some sparkle.
