We are having a celebration over at If You Give a Crafter a Cookie for the 5th birthday of this Challenge Blog !! I was tempted by the always gorgeous cookie inspiration photos and have been a member of the Design Team since January 2018 !! Our Challenge runs from Sept. 5 through the 18th - link up any project you would like that is inspired by our birthday inspiration photo below . One lucky person will win a gift card for some amazing digi stamps . I will also be giving away some blog candy to 1 lucky commenter on this post. In honor of our 5th anniversary - I will be sending someone 5 of my favorite craft supplies - can you guess what those are ?!?!?!
For this challenge, I immediately thought of a beautiful stamp set from Close To My Heart - It's Your Day to Sparkle . It was a Stamp of the Month this year and I had to have it !! It was perfect to help me celebrate 5 years of Cookie Challenges !!
- I stamped the cake design with Versafine Clair Nocturne Ink onto a white watercolor panel and also stamped the roses from the cake onto scraps of dark pink and green papers.
- The roses and leaves were fussy-cut from the paper scraps to paper-piece onto the cake.
- Above the cake I also stamped the word SPARKLE and the doodle line.
- The cake stand was colored with a variety of my favorite markers : Faber-Castell PITT Artist pens and Akashiya SAI Waterbrush markers.
- I adhered a piece of silver candy dot sparkle ribbon from Webster's Pages to the top of the watercolor panel ( this ribbon has long been hoarded in my craft room !!! ) .
- The roses and leaves were adhered to the cake with Art Glitter Glue .
- Wink of Stella - Clear was used to add sparkle to every other layer of the cake .
- A glittery turquoise 5 was placed at the top of the cake.
- The watercolor panel was adhered to a dark blue card base.
I hope that you will leave me a comment here - you just might receive a bit of blog candy from me !! Then take a peek at the other Design Team projects over at If You Give a Crafter a Cookie . Please celebrate with us by linking up a project before September 19. Get inspired by our latest Happy Birthday cookie photo !!
Thanks again for visiting Meticulosity !!

ReplyDeleteThis is lovely and the sparkle is just as yummy as the cake. :-)
ReplyDeleteI want to eat cookies. So pretty. Good job.
ReplyDeleteThis cake is so pretty...and now I want cookies AND cake! As for your favorite craft supplies, I'm guessing that one of them might be rhinestones, or Wink of Stella!
ReplyDeleteEeek! Those cookies are such a cute inspiration and I love your take on the theme. That sparkle ribbon along the top is such a beautiful addition to your card too.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if your favorite supplies are glitter glue, and Faber Castell pens?
Awesome card! Love that cake!
