The Ribbon Reel Challenge #2

Hi all, today brings us the second challenge from The Ribbon Reel, and this week's challenge has been set by Debbie Marcinkiewicz.

The photo inspiration is below, with the theme entitled 'Strawberries and Cream', yum yum!



And here's my card:



I have used a pearlescent cream card base, and embossed some cream Bazzill card with a Cuttlebug folder.

The patterned papers are from Dovecraft, and are called Tea House.

The cupcake stamp is from Papermania, and paper pieced with Tea House papers, and topped off with icicle and pink stickles.



I then layered the cupcake onto some pearly cream card and scalloped pink bazzill cut with nesties.


The beautiful ruffled pink ribbon and stripy twill is from The Ribbon Reel.



Finally added some candy dots in the corner.

To join the fun at The Ribbon Reel Challenge, please see HERE to enter and challenge rules. Challenges are two-weekly, and all entries are to be new work, and linked back to the Ribbon Reel Challenge site.

I will be entering this card into the following Challenges:

Tuesday Throwdown - Die cuts

Clear it Out Challenge - Ribbon or Trim

Stamptacular Sunday - Pinkalicious


Thanks for stopping by,

Pauline xx
