Bright Halloween Cupcakes

Hello, Gemma here and today I’m sharing a card using the new Halloween Cupcakes stamp set. I love the bold bright colours of Halloween and chose a colour scheme of pink, purple and turquoise.

I began by stamping out 3 of the cupcakes and colouring them with copic markers. I then die cut them out with the Halloween Cupcakes coordinating dies.

Copic colours: Turquoise: BG000, 11, 13, 23, 45, 49 Pink: RV21, 23, 25 Purple: BV02, 04, 08

For my background, I first used the largest die in the Wonky Stitched Rectangles die set to cut a panel of white card. From this, I used the Stitched Pieces die to cut some windows in the panel. This is one of my favourite PPP dies.

On the die cut insert pieces, I used the same copic markers to colour each one in. I wanted them to match my cupcake colours but knew it could be tricky to find a patterned paper or ink that matched. To add some sparkle, I covered each one with embossing ink, then embossed them with WOW Neutral Ultra Shimmer embossing powder.

I stamped a sentiment from the new Sentiment Strips: Halloween stamp set on the white panel.

On an A2 card base, I adhered a piece of black pearl sparkle card, followed by the white Wonky Stitched Rectangle panel. I added the sparkly insert pieces, then used foam tape to add the cupcakes to finish.

Thanks so much for joining me today!
