Pastel Valentine Cupcakes

Hello everyone, June here! Today I’m back with another card I made using the new release using a variety of products.

One thing I instantly noticed when I saw the Valentine Cupcakes stamp set is the familiar image on one of them – the bird on one cupcake matches the ones in the A Little Birdie stamp set! Stuff like this always sparks  an idea for a card.

So I went ahead and stamped some images from those 2 sets and colored them with Copic Markers. I also used some hearts from the new Decorative Hearts stamp set to make a little cluster of images to go in the center of my card.

For my background I used the Scallop Ovals and as always, I blended a background using Distress Oxide. I decided to use one of the stencils from the Layered Heart Lattice stencils on its own for a more subtle look. I used a blend of Tattered Rose, Worn Lipstick and Saltwater Taffy to get the perfect shade of pink. For the panel behind the oval I used a bit of Lost Shadow and splattered some Hickory Smoke onto it.

I adhered my panels with foam tape to give it some dimension. To finish off my card, I stamped and embossed the ‘XOXO’ that’s in the Decorative Hearts stamp set I used before. 

And that’s it for today! I hope you enjoyed today’s blog post.
