Taylored Expressions Cupcake Challenge includes a sketch. I'm beginning to really love sketches these days.
Anyways, the Strawberry Cupcake was stamped on paper-baggy-colored cardstock. I used Copics to color the paper skirt part and the strawberry. I used a Fantastick to swirl and dab on the Pearl Ranger Paint Dabber for the frosting. It is shiny and kind of textured in person. The scan flattened and drabbed it out. I stamped a second strawberry, colored it, cut it out, and then popped it on top of the other strawberry to give it a bit more depth.
The paper is from the Keep on Cooking line by Flair Designs. I cut out a circle that said "Yum", went over it with Distress Ink to make it stand out a bit more, than went over it again with a Spica pen to make it glittery since it clearly needed a bit of blling.
I colored the brown & white gingham ribbon with my Copic marker. I'm really pining for more of those, but have the first college tuition payment due in the beginning of August.
Anyways, thanks for visiting today!
