Cupcakes Sweetest Day Card - Simply Stampin' #25 Sketch Challenge

This week it's a sketch challenge at the Simply Stampin' Challenge blog.  I liked it as soon as I saw it and decided I must make a card.  I've been busy for the last few days though and haven't had any inky time.  I managed to finally get in my craft room today and stamp.  Here is the sketch.

  I decided to use my Crazy for Cupcakes set which hasn't seen a lot of ink lately.  I love the pile of cupcakes on the stand!  I chose Pink Pirouette, Rose Red and Baja Breeze as my colour combo.  I've coloured the image with marker inks and a blender pen and I added Glossy Accents to the cherries.  I cut out the pile of cupcakes and have popped it up.  I've sponged the edges of the sentiment and image panel with Pink Pirouette ink and I also did the same on the dotty embossed Pink Pirouette square layer.  I embossed the Baja Breeze strip with the Vintage Wallpaper folder.  I punched a Rose Red border with the Scallop punch and glued it behind the Baja Breeze layer and I added a clear rhinestone to each full scallop.  The main image and sentiment oval are popped up.

For the inside I used patterned papers to paper piece balloons and I added the lovely Happy Birthday sentiment from the Swirls and Curls Verses set.  I also added a paper pieced balloon to the envelope flap but forgot to take a pic!
