Hi everyone! Happy Saturday! Here is my card for today's Inspiration Challenge! The cakes on the Cake Nouveau site are beyond amazing...I chose to use this Circus Colors cake as my inspiration: http://cakenouveau.com/cakes2.html
The cupcake was stamped twice, watercolored with my SU! inks and an Aquapainter, and the *icing* was cut out and popped up on dimensionals.
The polka dot background was created by adhering 3/4 Inch So Saffron circles onto a Tempting Turquoise panel.
Thanks so much for looking!!
Jodi

How fun Jodi! love the layered frosting, all the dots and the shimmery cupcake! what super colors on this too!
I love the Twilight series too - couldn't put the books down until I was done - then suffered from withdrawal because there weren't any more - then I saw the movie and got the soundtrack (which is super by the way - did you get it??!) and now I can't wait til they have a 2nd movie! I didn't realize the sentiment I used was in the book !.......
