For this card, the die intended to cut out the hearts stamped with the Cheerful Basket stamp set (158674) is used to create the cupcake frosting!

And the dies for creating the basket are used to create the cupcake itself.

(By the way, the Stamp Set and Dies mentioned above are currently available at a discounted bundle price - Cheerful Basket Bundle (158680))

Recreate this Card

For the Frosting

  1. Die cut two of the "frosting" pieces from Soft Suede.  Aka the piece designed to cut out the stamped hearts.
  2. Flip one over, and adhere them together so that one is above the other (See picture) and trim any excess if needed.

For the Cupcake

  1. Die cut the solid "basket" image in Parakeet Party.
  2. Die cut the "woodgrain" image from the Tea Boutique Designer Series Paper (DSP).
  3. Adhere the DSP to the basket image.

Assemble the Card

  1. Create a Crumb Cake card base.
  2. Stamp the greeting on the Tea Boutique DSP.
  3. Adhere the DSP to the card base.
  4. Adhere the cupcake to the center of the card front with dimensionals.
  5. Add a baker's twine bow.
  6. Add 2022-24 In Color Matte Decorative Dots to the frosting for sprinkles.
