Pastel Cake Pops

Hi friends, It’s Christina, and I have a little something sweet for you! Pretty Pink Posh followed up their super popular Valentine Cake Pops with Birthday Cake Pops, and I was so excited to use them for today’s project. I decorated my cake pops in pastel ice cream colors and mounted them on a Wavy Stripes background complete with a sparkly text overlay.

Below you’ll find a supply list and the steps I took to create this sweet pastel card design. Let’s get started!

Birthday Cake Pop Dies
Wavy Stripes Stencil
Birthday Words Stencil
Eyelet Rectangle Dies
For You Shadow Dies
Bright Rainbow Clay Confetti

My first step was to create the background. I started by trimming a piece of white cardstock to fit inside the stitched detail of the largest eyelet rectangle. Then, using the Wavy Stripe Stencil and a teal ink, I stenciled a wavy stripe across the panel. To finish the panel, I stenciled over the wavy stripes using the Birthday Words Stencil and a sparkly white stencil paste. The last step to creating my background was to mount the stenciled panel to an eyelet rectangle die cut from turquoise cardstock.

With the background completed, I got to work on the other elements of my card design. I started with die cutting all the components for the cake pops from pastel-colored cardstock. I assembled the cake pops and added clay confetti pieces for sprinkles and sticks die cut from glitter cardstock. I attached these to my background panel with foam squares and then added the sentiment, which I also die cut from glitter cardstock. I chose a turquoise shadow for the sentiment to coordinate with the eyelet rectangle and then finally attached the entire panel to a teal A2 cardstock panel.

And that’s all there is to creating this sweet pastel card design. Thanks so much for reading about my latest project. See you again soon!
