'Hello Cupcake'

CAKE- Yummy- I love it!!  Look at the adorable cupcake card!

Didn't it turn out just so cute!  This is one of the cards that everyone attending my February monthly classes will be making with me! 

And how cool is this- but starting March 1st- you can purchase Framelits to coordinate with this stamp set!  So be sure you add the framelits to you wish list if you already have this stamp set!  Or is you don't have the stamp set yet- be sure you add them both to your wish list before Sale-a-bration is over with the end of March.  As this 'Hello Cupcake' is a Level 1- Sale-a-bration stamp set that you can get for FREE with a $50 product order! 

I used the Large Letter Framelits to cut out the C K & E from the DSP.  We then used mini dimensionals to pop the letters back up.  This technique is called an eclipse technique.  

Look closely at the frosting on the cupcake.  I used some Shimmery White Embossing Paste on it.

Yesterday was quite the day!  The predicted snow didn't come quiet as early as it was suppose to- so I had good roads all of the way to Cedar Rapids.  So that was great!!  It started snowing about 10:00- right when my first class was starting.  The snow ended about 1:00 when my 2nd class was starting.  Thankfully almost everyone made it to both classes.  We all had a great time visiting & stamping the day away!!  Cheryl & Becky had great snacks & were awesome hostesses that did a super job helping me with everything.  We got all done & cleaned up just in time!  I had a long drive home though.....as it was drizzling & the roads were a little slick.  But I made it fine- it was just slow going.  I'm so ready for this crappy winter to be over with!

As of now school is on regular time for today.  The buses are going to be running on hard surfaces only though- which is good since the gravel roads are so terribly slick.  

Deke is off early to chore & head to the courthouse for his weekly board meeting.  I'm up early to walk on the treadmill & be at Manda's by 7:30, as she has a meeting before school.  I'll take the twins to school & then spend my day with the 3 little ones.  Tonight the 3 big boys will be here after school too.  

Tonight when everyone has gone home I'll be placing orders & working on stamping stuff!

I hope you have a MARVELOUS Monday!! 

Happy Stamping!
Hugs-
