I purchased this stamp and die set on sale a few months back and have been wanted to use it so bad...I missed all my nieces' birthdays but Connie's birthday is a good reason to use it!

I used several layers of paper to create the cupcake.  All of which came from the Sweet Threads collection except the pink card stock and the vellum.  I stamped the "icing" on the vellum and embossed.  I love how it turned out!  I hope Connie did too!  I actually sent her this card for her birthday!

Ingredients:

Basic Grey Sweet Threads paper

Tim Holtz Birthday Blueprint stamp and dies

Recollections Vintage pink embossing powder

Tim Holtz Hickory Smoke Distress ink and pen

Mixd Media Chiffon pigment ink

QQ coal miner powderpuff ink

vellum

misc card stock
