Here is my next Cupcake card that follows a similar format to yesterdays card, but it has a portrait orientation instead of landscape.

I wish I had the time to use Liquid Applique on all 99 cards I’m making because I absolutely LOVE the result. I sprinkled ultra fine prisma glitter over the liquid applique on this cupcake before heating it up. I’m not one of those people who has the patience to let Liquid Applique dry before heating it and I actually prefer the bubbly, fluffy effect you achieve from heating it while it’s still wet. If you were to allow it to dry first it would be slightly smoother when heated.

I’ll be back on Thursday to post my next two cards as I won’t have internet access tomorrow and will spend the day “baking up” some cupcake cards. See you then!

Gingham Mittens

Here’s a sweet little card I made featuring the Petite Red Gingham paper from A Muse with an AccuCut mitten die-cut. This card was super quick and easy to make, which is important in these last few weeks leading up to Christmas.

I used White Liquid Applique on the tops of the mittens and heat it up before letting it dry to get a nice fluffy effect. The A Muse sentiment is one of my favourites – the mix of fonts is so cute.

I made this card for another Paperie class a few weeks ago – I thought it was a stroke of genius to add some micro beads to the liquid applique before heating it. Then I googled the “liquid applique” + “micro beads” and saw many other bloggers who had the same flash of inspiration. Ah well, I am still waiting for that ONE perfect, original idea to strike. Someday…
