Sunshine and Spring Time

Hey Doodle fans.  It's EK from ekgorman designs, and I have the honor of guest designing agin over at Doodle's Paper Playground with a few of their newly released Sparkle Blend sequin mixes.  I decided to create a double shaker today using some of the beautiful spring themed blends.

Today I pulled out the Sparkle Blend Packs

Springtime

and

Sunshine

I started by stamping out this sweet little Love Muffin stamp set from Your Next Stamps onto some watercolor paper.

Then using my xacto knife and my nippers, I trimmed out the frosting on the the little cupcake.

I colored in the rest of the image using my Zig Watercolor brush pens.

I then die cut out a frame in some teal paper, added some acetate, and adhered in the center of it my stamped image.  Using three dimensional tape, I created boarders around the frosting and around the frame so I could add two separate blends.

Inside the frosting I added the new Springtime Sparkle Blend mix with its soft pinks and pastel colors.  In the larger area I added the new Sunshine Sparkle Blend sequin mix.

I just love how this card came out today.  I think it the colors are just so much fun and perfect for this time of year!

Thanks for peeking in today.  Make sure you pop over to White Rose Crafts, the exclusive carrier of the Sparkle Blend sequins and check out all that they are carry.
