Khristina Color Challenge #14 "Hey Cupcake"



YA! I made the challenge in time. This will qualify for 2 challenges. Kristina's color challenge and Taylors Cupcake challenge.. YES a two for one!! I love the color combination she pick some of them really push me to look at thing in a new way.. I really hope she will use the in-colors that are retiring this catty in the future.  I have been trying to use my stamps that will be retiring with this catty this last little while. I have even had to "cut rubber" on some of them. How sad it that. It's a sign that I might have to many stamp sets.. Who am I kidding you can never have to many stamp!!! This adorable cupcake stamp is from a Stampin'Up level 2 hostess set called "Cause for Celebration" I forgot that I even had this set and almost selected it on my last order.. Big Huh!!  This stamp has a single candle that is in the middle of the cupcake I just masked it if with scotch tape while I inked it. I didn't even have to use my "Stamp-a-ma-gig" (don't look to close) I just use my grid paper to line it up on the paper... If you don't have the grid paper you must add it to your wish list.. It's a must. I let my customers keep the ones they use and extra on the table. The nest time they come to class they tell me how much they have been enjoying them.

HAPPY 4th of JULY to the U.S.A.
We are of to a big sleep over, Movies, Bike parade, neighborhood breakfast and flag ceremony, water party, snow cones and food of course. 

Until tomorrow.
