Congrats, Dawn, I'm thrilled that you're the FS today! Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful and inspiring creations with us!
I almost never get the chance to do the FS, although it's one of my favorite challenges, but I had to make time to case sweet Flowergal! She's got such a gorgeous gallery, and she always leaves such nice comments!
I'm very familiar with Dawn's gallery, but I had to go back several times, just because I didn't realize (and couldn't believe) that her first upload was in April! This is the card that I chose:SC185 Cupcake by flowergal36 at Splitcoaststampers
I changed the layout slightly because Dawn's card was a sketch. I didn't have the dsp that Dawn used, so I changed that to something similar, then changed the cs to match. I used different ribbon, and in a different way, and added a sentiment and eyelets!
The sentiment and image are stamped with versamark and embossed with chocolate scented ep. I paper pieced the cupcake just like Dawn did on her card.
Thanks for looking!

Great job with the paper pieced cupcake, Darla, and I love your polkadotted dp! Yummylicious, I say! I have to admit that I was surprised that Dawn has only been around since earlier this year, too.

Super cute and yummy, Darla... love your paper pieced cupcake, like how you embossed the cupcake and sentiment, like the polka dot dp, colours, paisley ribbon and eyelet embellishments. tfs
