Hi there blog friends!! And the spring fever continues, can’t you tell? I surrender, I’m giving in to it :-) I picked out some luscious paper and knew I wanted to incorporate a new set that I got from Crafty Secrets called Cupcake Party that includes a cupcake wrapper. Well you know me and cupcake wrappers, I’m watching my sweets but that sure doesn’t mean that I can ‘t use the wrapper on my card!! Because the filigree on the wrapper stamp was so pretty, and the paper has a lot of detail, I decided to stamp it on clear acetate using Stazon Ink. In the past, me and acetate didn’t really get along. Well, this stamped out like a dream and I was able to line it up perfectly. I kept going with this stunning butterfly.
I paired it with the amazing butterfly in the new Spellbinders Fanciful Flight set. I finished up with the small pennant from Spellbinders Nested Pennants and a bow.
| SUPPLIES I USED |
| Stamps: Crafty Secrets – Cupcake Party Paper: Bazzill, K & Company Ink: Stazon Black, Memento Tuxedo Black Accessories: Spellbinders Nested Pennants, Spellbinders Fanciful Flight, Ribbon, pearls |
Take care of yourselves and remember, it’s all about today. I’m going out for a breath of fresh air but will see you tomorrow!!

YOu find the coolest elements…I think I need to bail and get going on some creating instead of blogging…between babies and holding the fort there seems no time when I use it up blogging…I will catch up though and leave a comment or 2 here and there…you rock Becca…you are blessed to be able to have joy in life…
Wonderful card Becca. You never let us down.
Your card is gorgeous Becca, your right the colors are luscious. I’m waiting for the fanciful flight die-set to be released I have it on pre-order. the stamped butterfly on the acetate looks just perfect on the bigger butterfly. I can’t stop looking at those colors they are gorgeous. As always Becca, TFS!!! :-D

Strikingly beautiful, Becca!
Becca: I must say you have stepped outside of the box…This is entirely different from your usual. I will have to let this concept become more familiar..lovely colors, everything is done well…very coordinated elements.

This is just stunning Becca! I love that graceful swoop across the card, and the butterfly is just gorgeous!!

Your design is like a breath of fresh air, Becca! Hope your outing was refreshing.
I visited Crafty Secrets website and looked at the stamp set – and I finally understand. This is a very neat idea and it turned out so cute. Thanks for thinking Spring, Becca…..it will happen up here in the north one of these days.

Hi Becca,
Such an elegant card! The colors are so exciting and you use the cupcake wrapper designs in such unique ways! I checked out Crafty Secrets and this is definitely a must have stamp! It has so many possibilities. I put in a order for several items to Spellbinders the other day with my Christmas money. I’ve been saving for those special dies you’ve been working with…I’m so excited to get them. It’s going to be hard waiting for them to arrive. Thank you so much for all the inspiring ideas you give us! I had a ball going through the blog hop! It’s so fun to see all the beautiful work of so many talented people! It’s also a treat to have a chance to win such great Blog Candy!
Thank you again!

Thank you for sharing.
wow – really vibrant. This doesn’t seem to come across like your usual designs, but its probably because of the design papers used. Just shows how they can make all the difference.
