Hiya friends, it's Paper Players Sunday...yahoo! It seems like the Players have been away forever but it sure was nice to have a break! So, we're back for 2012 with a theme challenge from the Lovely Lesley:
No time like the present to get started on those Valentine's Day cards, right? With so many fun new stamps in the Occasions Mini Catalog, I couldn't resist a Valentine with the Sweet Cake set:
I paired Sweet Cake with the coordinating Sweet Shop Specialty Designer Paper and the colors of Calypso Coral, Pool Party with a dash of Soft Suede. I stamped the cupcake image three times in each color and fussy-cut the dollop of Calypso Coral frosting and the Soft Suede cupcake liner. Of course, I added some Dazzling Diamonds to the frosting for a little extra sparkle!
I hope you like today's Sweet Cake card and I would love to know what you think! Be sure to check out the rest of the inspiring creations from The Paper Players Design Team:
