This month we are using products from the NEW Seasonal Expressions.
The stamp set I am using is the December Stamp of the Month called "Cutie Pie". There are 11 fabulous stamps in this set. With a $50 order, you not only can get this stamp set for only $5.00, but you can choose any "C" and "D" size stamp sets from the ANNUAL CATALOG for only $10.00 each. And, as many as you want.
I used The new Heartstrings paper pack. Along with the new Hearts embossing folder, and the Pixie Extra Thick Twine. There is even a glittery heart on top of the cupcake from the Stuck on You Puffies.
I first stamped all of the images using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. This is the perfect ink to use with alcohol markers.
I did some paper piecing on the cupcake stand. I wanted to tie it in with the background paper.
The flowers were punched from the same paper and a little glitter cardstock.
For the cupcake itself, I used our New fabulous ShinHan Alcohol Markers.
