Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #89

Edit:  This card won the Friday Mashup 'Mashup Maven' honor.  : )
          Also... Top 3 honors for Die Cut Dreams Christmas Club challenge #47.  : )

Hello my stamping buddies.  Happy Sunday to you all.  Another Sunday... another Cupcake Inspirations Challenge.  Another great cupcake to inspire us this week.  Here's what I came up with...


I know... whoa, that's lotsa blue!!  Just so you'll understand why I headed down this road, here's the cupcake inspiration for this week's...


Aren't those luscious looking???  They're just dripping (frosting) with beautiful deliciousness!!  I just think these are great and had fun working up a card from them.


This sweet cutie is a digital image from Anita Be Stampin.  This is a relatively new store started by one of our very own sweeties, Anita.  She is also generously sponsoring our challenge.  The random winner will win 3 digi images or 1 rubber stamp set. 


I paper pieced her dress and boots, glittered up her white trim, stickled up the snowflakes and hand wrote the sentiment.
