Cupcake Trio

I tried several times to create a card using the inspiration photo from The Card Concept. Then, Danielle Flanders demonstrated stamping and mixing patterns in the MIM #206 video and I finally completed it:


I colored three cupcakes from PTI's Baker's Dozen with Copics.  The sentiment and banner are also from Baker's Dozen. Wink of Stella was applied to each of them.  The inks I used to make the papers are: PTI's Berry Sorbet, Pure Poppy, and W+9 Coconut Husk.  The stamp sets are: Background Basics: Super Stripes, Happiness in Bloom, and Friendly Flowers.  Papers are:  PTI's Pure Poppy, Berry Sorbet, and Dark Chocolate.  The background behind the cupcakes was made with Liquitex Modeling Paste and Fired Brick Distress Ink.
 
I was inspired by the following Challenges:
Papertrey Ink's Make It Monday #206:  Stamping and Mixing Patterns
 
The Card Concept #31: Cupcakes  I would call my card clean and layered.
