I'm creative, you can't expect me to be neat too!

LOL!!! This is one of my favorite stamps from the "Crafty Cuppie" set from Taylored Expressions. As I was browsing Taylor's web site drooling at all the SUPER cute cupcake stamps, I saw this one and immediately let out a squeal!! LOVE IT!! This is a birthday card for a friend of mine who just started out scrapbooking, so I know she can totally relate to the neatness comment!


I started by stamping my image onto some Classic Crest CS and colored with my Copics. Since it was a birthday card, I wanted some bright fun colors, so I chose this DP from DCWV's Citrus Stack collection. Lots of yellows. oranges and reds in this collection. Just screams orange juice to me!! He-he! I matted all the patterned paper with blue paper, also from the same collection, and stitched around the edges of each layer. I tied this gingham ribbon around the bottom and adhered the top two panels with dimensionals for a little depth. I stamped the sentiment onto some scrap CS and rounded the corners to finish. Think she'll like it? I do too!
Be sure to leave a comment below and let me know what you think, k?

    Oh how I wish I had your talent for using copics - my creative style does not include any "coloring", which definitely has its limits. And what a darling card to share with your crafty friends! Great job!

    Wow - lots of coloring and shading. I like the shading on cuppie. Great sparkle paper! I like the offset of the yellow paper.
