AAA Cards Challenge # 314 - Anything CAKE Goes - Sweet Cupcake Celebrate

Hello,

Welcome to AAA Cards Challenge #314 where we're celebrating our 12th Birthday! To mark the occasion, our theme for the next two weeks is *Anything CAKE Goes".  YUM! Cakes, cake slices, cupcakes: make those the star of your white space! 

I 'frosted up' a Waffle Flower Sweet Cupcake for the challenge. Easy to stencil; easy to die cut; easy to make the star of the stage. 

Please visit the main blog to see fabulous sweet treats from my teammates.
Looking forward to seeing what flavours of cake you'll share with us.

A reminder that we're looking for Clean and Simple designs; you can find the description of what that means here.

Inkspirational Challenge #367 - Visual Prompt - Floral Palette - Blended Petals Thank You for Being You (Concord and 9th)

Hello,

Welcome to Inkspirational Challenge #367. For the next two weeks (May 9 - 22), we invite you to step into a garden of colour and imagination with this whimsical visual prompt inspired by an artist’s palette brought beautifully to life in blooms. Vibrant rainbow florals, painterly textures, an outdoor setting: plenty in this fun photo to spark your creativity.

Rainbow colours and flowers caught my eye, so I tried to combine both in the making of my card. The flower image - Concord & 9th's Blended Petals - I like; the ink blending, however, is a bit "meh" compared to the vision I hoped to achieve. 
I'm okay-ish with this, but...stay tuned for something brighter and more whimsical in the Reminder Post. 

Please visit the main blog to see fabulous inspiration from my teammates.

Looking forward to seeing how this prompt inspired you!
