Well, today's Free For All Challenge was just what I needed to create a card for my FIL. It's been soooooooooo long since I've uploaded a card to SCS or even done a challenge!!!!!
For my centre Cupcake, I sprayed the base and top with a mixture of rubbing alcohol, water and Shimmer Paint just to add a bit of "glitz" and added some linen thread for a rustic look. It does actually look better IRL!!!
Certainly not my usual colour choice, but for what I'm using the card for, I'm happy with how it turned out.
Would love to know what you think.

Mmmmmmm, cupcakes!! I love the brown in here and how it highlights the chocolate sprinkles!! I kid you not; I ate 3 cupcakes yesterday at a party, and the cupcake maker urged me to take some home so I did, and I ate THREE MORE for breakfast this morning!! I LOVE cupcakes, and I love your cupcake card!!
