JAI #156 : STAMPIN' UP!'S CREATE A CUPCAKE

This week at Just Add Ink, we have a colour challenge for you - one that was chosen by me (and boy, did I challenge myself with this one!).  Here are the gorgeous colours we'd like you to combine on a card or other papercraft project:


 
 
 
I had a picture in my mind of Red Velvet cupcakes, so went with that, and here's the card I came up with:
 
 
 

Stamps: Create A Cupcake
Card: Early Espresso, Bashful Blue, Very Vanilla
Ink: Early Espresso and Raspberry Ripple stampin' pads
Other: Cupcake Builder punch, Word Window punch, Modern Label punch, In Color Dahlias, Scallop Edge border punch, Cloudy Day embossing folder, Needlepoint Border embossing folder, Early Espresso 1/4" stitched grosgrain, glue dots, stampin' dimensionals, Stamp-a-ma-jig
 
 
Be sure to check out the rest of the Design Team's samples using this colour combination - they are gorgeous!
