I created a red and gold, with touched of purple alcohol ink background for my granddaughter's birthday card. I had a lot leftover since it was a full 8-1/2" x 11" sheet. I love the vibrancy of alcohol inks. I was able to create seven more beautiful cards using this background paper.
For this card I pulled out the Spellbinders Cupcake Pocket die. The cupcake liner was cut from the alcohol ink background. The cupcake was cut from ivory cardstock and edges were ink blended with yellow ink left on my blending brush.
The cupcake liner has fold lines that create the pocket. They were reinforced with a bone folder and then thin double-sided tape was added to the folds. The decorative swirls were cut from gold mirror cardstock and adhered in place with liquid glue.
This time I decided to emphasis the purple in the alcohol inked background and cut a panel from a deep purple cardstock using a scalloped rectangle die. An Ellen Hutson Essential Rectangle die was used to glue the thin gold border, which was adhered with liquid glue. The panel was adhered to a top folding A2 cardbase.
The sentiment was cut from gold mirror cardstock. To add some visual interest behind the cupcake a balloon bouquet outline die was also cut from gold cardstock. All elements on the card were laid onto the purple background to determine placement. The liner was adhered in place by removing the backing paper on the double-sided tape. The sentiment and balloons outline were adhered in place with liquid glue.
The cupcake topper can be inserted into the pocket and the recipient can pull it out to find a hidden sentiment. I stamped the word "pull" at the bop of the cupcake and stamped a secondary greeting on the bottom to be revealed with pulled.
I have a little bowl with leftover confetti pieces from a background die. I decided to adhered a few of them scattered around the top of the cupcake.
