Whenever I think of “fun” birthday, I think of cake and cupcakes, so I used the Hero Arts/Sizzix stamp/die combo set and some Copic markers:
I was going to mask the front cupcake but decided to just use the Sizzix die and adhere it in front of the other cupcakes. I actually trimmed off the extra white lining on the bottom portion of the cupcake. I used a white colored pencil on the liner of the front cupcake because it was solid dark brown. Hope you like!
Stamps: Hero Arts Happy Birthday Cupcakes Stamps with Sizzix Dies, Hero Arts Cupcakes Clear Set, and Hero Arts Graph Background Stamp.
Inks: Memento Tuxedo Black Ink, Stampin’ Up! Pretty in Pink, and Stampin’ Up! Regal Rose.
Other: Spellbinders Labels Eleven, Stampin’ Up! Linen Thread, and Copic Sketch Markers: BG11, BG72, BG75, E25, E30, E34 (side cupcakes) – R81, R83, R85, E30, E34, E44 (middle cupcake) – W1, W3 (shadow)
