Hello!

You are sooooo in for incredible treats this week, with Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #394~Carmine, White and Black.


  • Treat #1: this inspiration photo!  I'm crushing all over these dramatic, bold *pop-in-the-mouth cupid* cupcakes. CAS-loving heart captured!
  •  Treat #2: eye-catching creations by my design team.  
  • Treat #3: amazing Shery from STAMPlorations is sponsoring the challenge and one lucky winner will receive a $15 gift certificate to her store! So generous! Her support, in turn, leads to
  • Treat #4:  a whole slew of guest designers from her various design teams have come to play along with us! Woo hoooo!  You want to see a gallery filled with WOW...then head on over!  You will be, as I am, completely impressed! 



I'm featuring some wonderful STAMPlorations products on my card: Crazy Double Running Stitch Nesting Dies, XOXO CUTplorations. Doodled Heart stencil, and snippets of script from Mixed Media Elements. Oh yes...my background is white, not a light shade of pink, as it appears here. Sighhh...

Please head over to the main blog to see the outstanding array of creativity displayed.
Afterwards, put your carmine, black and white to paper and
join us.
