I started with a magnetic tag from MFT. They are super cool. There is a magnet hidden behind paper that wraps the tag. It keeps the front and back closed. It is the perfect space for a gift card (or some cash). I enjoy altering it. :)
I decided to make a pink, black and white creation. This has been one of my favorite color combos since I started stamping. :)
The cupcakes (What's Up Cupcake-MFT) were stamped with Memento black ink and then colored in with Copic markers. The frosting and sprinkles were stamped with pretty in pink. A pink Swarovski crystal was added to the top of each cupcake.
I cut the sentiment apart and used it as shown. The sentiment comes as one long piece. Again, don't be afraid to cut your acrylic sentiments. It's a lot easier than masking! :)
I finished off this project with lots of beautiful ribbon from May Arts and a glittery Prima flower.
Stamps: MFT What's Up Cupcake
Paper: pink pirouette, black, PTI white
Ink: memento black, pink pirouette, pretty in pink
Accessories: copic markers, may arts ribbon, Prima, circle punches, Swarovski crystals, black dimensional boosters, magnetic tag from MFT, paper piercer, white gel pen
This is wonderful, Jody, but I would be afraid to put a gift card into a magnetized holder, for fear the magnet would erase the data strip on the gift card. Have you had this experience? Any advice? Thanks.
ReplyDeleteOh my heavens, this is just the cutest. I can't stop looking at it. Better go get a fresh cup of coffee and sit and stare at it some more!
