Sweetest Holiday Wishes...

Hi there! I'm so happy to share this card with you...it's my first Whimsy Stamps Digital Design Team card!

I just love the Meljen's images available at Whimsy Stamps and as soon as I saw this one, I knew I had to use it! It's called Christmas Cupcake! There are so many things I love about it...the scalloped top on the wrapper and the ribbon running through it...and the swirls of frosting topped with a few sprinkles! Who doesn't love sprinkles! And the little holly sprig gives it the perfect touch!

I colored my image with Copics and layered up the background with a scalloped and smooth circle cut with Spellbinders dies atop this sparkly dp from My Minds Eye. This week's Meljen's challenge is Sparkle and Shine, so I got out my Diamond Stickles and "frosted" my frosting! I followed the Card Patterns sketch this week, so I added a little ribbon, a Prima flower, a Doodlebug candy brad and some Making Memories felt holly leaves! The sentiment is from Papertrey Ink's Holiday Button Bits set.
