TECC16 - Cupcake w/ Sprinkles

I finally had a chance to sit down this weekend and stamp; WOO, HOO!!! I always love Taylor's Cupcake Challenges, so I made this card for her sketch challenge this week. The cupcake image is by Whipper Snapper. I colored it in with Prismacolor Pencils and blended with Gamsol and a stump. I couldn't decide what color I wanted to make the frosting, so I just went with sprinkles...LOL!!! I used my Sakura Stardust Gelly Roll pen to add some sparkle to the sprinkles and also added StarDust Stickles to the cherry. The cardstock colors are Pumpkin Pie and Tempting Turquoise and the patterned paper is My Minds Eye. I distressed both Tempting Turquoise layers and added some turquoise grosgrain ribbon. I love how Taylor stamped her sentiment along the two sides of the card, so I decided to try it myself. The sentiment is from the MFT set, Icing on the Cake. I'm really happy with the outcome and I think I will be using this sketch a lot more. Thanks for the great challenge Taylor. I'll be back later tonight with a super cute Blogger RAK I received this weekend. Hope everyone has a great day!
