Pink Sweets Happy Birthday Card

Challenged myself to make this monochromatic card using shades of pink.

The base of the card is 5" x 7". Used Stampabilities Quatrefoil Background rubber stamp with Martha Stewart pink carnation embossing powder. Had seen the background stamp used on someone else's blog. Bought the rubber stamp at Hobby Lobby 40% off sale a couple weeks ago and first time using. Bought the embossing powder a good while ago and this is first time using.

Doily is made using Cheery Lynn French Pastry die. Selected this die for a challenge prize.

Cupcake sweets are made using Spellbinders dies/Hampton Arts stamps set and Memento Rose Bud ink.


Added glitter & liquid Pearls.

Sentiment tag is made using a Spellbinder die. Added ribbon.
