Another birthday card, this time using a stamp from Stampendous, Cupcake Belly.  I just love those little mice! 

I used my Copic markers to color him up.  To make the “frosting”, I mixed some Embossing Paste with some Wilted Violet Distress Ink to get a pretty violet color for the frosting.  After adding it to the cupcake, I added just a drop to the mouse’s face…you can tell he just loved the cupcake!

To make the background, I used the same paste with Simon Says Tiny Spaced Hearts stencil.  It added just enough detail to the background.

To make the candle shiny, I added some glossy accents over my Copic coloring.

The sentiment is from Gina K, Birthday Blessings which I embossed with clear embossing powder after stamping the greeting with Simon Says Stamp Thistle dye ink.  If you add the clear embossing fast enough, you can emboss with dye ink.  I used a die from Stamping Up Framelits collection, Deco Labels. 

Some sequins from Pretty Pink Posh, and the card was complete.

Happy Crafting!
