I Dream of Cupcakes

Here is another layout using Stampin' Up! papers, this time from the Brights Collections 12" x 12" Paper Stack and I used the Regal Rose and Tempting Turquoise dots papers from the stack and from the matching A4 Smooth Cardstock pack I used the same colours. The cupcakes were stamped using the Create A Cupcake stamp set and punched out with the matching Cupcake Builder Punch, both from the Spring Mini catalogue which finishes at the end of April. The inks used throughout are from the Brights Collection and I cut the large letters for the title using the Alphabet Simple Dies which I absolutely love. I also used the Scallop Trim Border Punch to add a little bit of white in between the two strong paper colours to break it up a bit and added some gorgeous Pretty in Pink half inch Scallop Dots Ribbon. I mounted the cupcakes onto label shapes cut using the brand new, and exclusive to Stampin' Up!, Sizzix Framelits Labels Collection. There are six metal dies in the set, each progressively smaller than the other. The hearts background on the label was stamped with one of the stamps from the Confetti Stamp Set, which has six different stamps that can be used in so many diffferent ways, they are so versatile. To finish the whole thing off I used a photograph of my bessy mate Caroline, which was taken last July on a photography day out in Leeds, with the lovely Kirsty Wiseman and friends. Caroline loves cupcakes and does in fact dream of cupcakes.
