Fun challenge today! I always forget about all the eyelets I have stashed away. So today I used a bunch for my fairly CAS card.
The images are from Our Daily Bread designs. The background is actually all one piece. I embossed the bottom half, scored a couple of lines and attached a narrow strip between the score lines (helps me keep it straight). The top half was stamped w/ a dotty circle (supposed to be a frame) in all of the colors of Distress Inks.
For the cupcake, I just swiped some copics on white c/s and stamped the image and cut it out. The round layer was stamped and die cut w/ one of the tag dies and the scallop on bottom used another of the tag dies and images. Then I attached all my eyelets. A few I colored w/ copics to get the right colors. The fuchsia layer was also made w/ copics. Didn't have the right color so just used the fuchsia copic to color around the edge before I attached the main panel. It's 5.50 x 4.25.
Thanks so much for looking! It's on my blog in just a sec: The Write Stuff
