Cupcakes for JAI 56 – Sketch Challenge
Hi there
I hope your weekend is going well. I love the sketch at Just Add Ink this week, so I decided to get this one done early before I was sidetracked with other chores. First off, here is the sketch, in case you haven't seen it:
I wanted to try and keep my card as clean and simple as the sketch, although this doesn't necessarily mean quick, unfortunately. I've gone with a funky colour combo (reminds me a bit of bubblegum icecream) that I haven't used before – Tempting Turquoise, Sahara Sand and Regal Rose. The focus stamp is the cupcake stand from the 'Crazy for Cupakes' stamp set, which I've coloured with my Watercolour Crayons. The icing was created using Frost White Shimmer paint mixed with a few drops Pink Pirouette reinker and applied with a small paint brush, although the shimmer isn't apparent in the photo.
