Popcorn anyone?

Although you've seen the preview I haven't shared the cards we made in our last card class yet, so here's the popcorn card. This is my favourite purely because I think it's such a clever use of punches. I would never have thought of this but saw it on Jules Japes and have pretty much just copied it, except for the colours:


We used Real Red as the base card and cut a strip of card from Basic Black, and punched squares of Whisper White, using the 1 1/4" square punch. The popcorn containers were stamped in Real Red ink and punched using the Cupcake Builder punch. The popcorn was punched using the flower shape from the Itty Bitty punch pack. We punched them out of Very Vanilla and inked the edges using Daffodil Delight and the Sponge Daubers. Here's a close up:



The 'Happy Birthday' sentiment stamp is part of the Create A Cupcake stamp set. It was stamped and punched using the Word Window punch, with the Modern Label punched in Basic Black behind it. Hope this shows you how versatile the cupcake stamp set and punch can be. They are only available till end April so if you like them, don't delay ordering them and contact me. More cupcakes next time. x
