Mojo Monday

I can't even begin to tell you the last time I actually got a Mojo Monday sketch done on Monday, but today is the day people...I DID IT!! Now, to be honest, this card should have never been made...I have WAY more "high priority" stuff to do, but seriously...awesome sketch, awesome stamps, awesome colors, SEVERE CUPCAKE CRAVING...what can you expect when you combine all those things together??? Now not to sound like Jan Tink(my GOSH is that woman funny!! and talented to boot)...but seriously, isn't this card GORGEOUS???!!! Okay, maybe gorgeous is stretching it a hair, but I think it's gorgeous and that's all that should matter.......here it is, wait for it...yes, .....I love myself, LOL!!!
Okay, enough fooling around..here is my card!! I made it using the Verve Stamps set, Cupcake Affair(which is on sale people so run, don't walk...). I followed today's, yayy me, Mojo Monday sketch to create this card. The DP is from the SU Bella Rose DSP as well as the Chocolate Chip Patterns DSP. I paired it with Chocolate Chip, Riding Hood Red and Pink Pirouette. The cupcake was colored with a combination of SU markers, re-inkers, and a blender pen. I then outlined the whole thing with my Cool Grey No. 3 copic and covered the icing with Crystal Effects. To add some extra blinginess(yep, it's a word...ask me, I'll tell ya again), I placed pearls in the centers of the flowers as well as the corners of the card. To finish it off, I added some Pink Pirouette, Chocolate Chip Taffeta and Riding Hood Red Taffeta ribbon, a spiral clip and it was done!!
Well, I think I have am done patting myself on the back...now to pat my sister on hers!! Here is some baby eye candy...you know you crave it!! By the way, for those of you new here...this is my nephew Jared and his best friend, my dog Sophie...too cute!!
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!
