Cupcakes and buttons

Photo Details

Poster: bfinlay

This is for todays Inspiration Challenge, I was inspired by this brooch at Georgie Love, along the theme of cupcakes and buttons, though I stuck to a limited color scheme:
http://georgielove.com/product.php?p...cat=251&page=4
I used a template made from Nestabilities ovals to sponge an oval shape three times, then paper pieced the cupcakes and popped them up with extra dimension at the bottom edge of the frosting. Added some stickles and flowers with buttons. The sentiment is computer generated.
