By flipping the little cupcake bottom you can create a nice little purse. The large and small oval punches complete the flap and handle. A Basic Rhinestone acts as a clasp on the purse fronts. I've added a purse and one of the cute sentiments from this set on the inside of the card. I made five cards using the Create a Cupcake stamp set. Each card is made with a mixture of either Baja Breeze or Pacific Blue card stock for the base and details in Regal Rose and Riding Hood Red DSP and card stock. Each card front features a singleton cupcake with a cherry on top. The icing is stamped in pink pirouette ink and then blinged up using a two-way glue pen and Dazzling Diamonds glitter. Although the 5 cards are basically the same I've tweaked the fronts and the insides so there are minor changes, i.e. changed up the ribbons and bows, changed the angle of the red riding hood base card and the sentiments. Here are some closeups.     |
You might also recognize the DSP I've used for some of the cards. Although the striped and large polka dot designed papers are from the glittery designer series paper called Candy Cane Christmas that was featured in the Holiday Mini Catalogue (2010), they work with the cupcake theme too. If you're interested in making any or all of these cards let me know (pennyhanuszak@telus.net). I will be holding a card class in April that will feature this punch and stamp set.

And that purse card...can I just saw "Awwwww!"!! I HAVE to try that out soon. Thanks for the fun inspiration! :)
Love these cards, Penny. You've inspired me to get my punch out and start using it (I'm embarrassed to admit that I've had it for 2 months and haven't punched a single piece of paper with it)!!
Love the idea of using the cupcake punch for purses...super cute card! And, I also love that you used the Candy Cane Christmas paper to make birthday cards. The stripes are perfect. Love cupcakes...I just posted a few cards myself! Thanks for sharing!
