Cupcakes!!!

It seems that everyone who touches this punch and stamp set fall in love!  It happened again at a workshop last weekend!  More than one person picked up the set!  If you're interested in getting the stamp set and punch AND making an adorable gift set, there's still time to register for Who You Callin' Cupcake!  Space is VERY limited - only 5 seats remain!

But, let's focus on today's card!  The cards were inspired by the Oh Sew Suite line of products in the Occasions Mini Catalog.  The layout was inspired by a swap card that I received at the Leadership Convention.

Here are a couple of tips to keep in mind when making this card:

• Adhere the DSP to the bottom of the card base before the Wasabi.  If you cut your paper to the measurements I used, the Wasabi will overlap your DSP (this is good).  You want the Wasabi on top so that the embossed polka dots don't show through your DSP.
• I used only a knot of the Daffodil Ribbon and adhered it to the card with a glue dot.  It gives you the same effect as wrapping it around, but saves on ribbon!
• Glue the Cupcake (with dimensionals) to the card last (it makes it easier to run your SNAIL adhesive over the back of the layers)
