Good morning friends
Here is the inspiration photo:
When looking through some patterned papers to use, I found this one and decided it was pretty close even though the teal/blue isn't as vibrant as the photo. I used Karen Burniston's Katherine Label Pop-Up for my card today, cutting a window from the front and lining it with frosted vellum. When the card is closed, you get just a peek at what is inside.
I used the same patterned paper inside the card, and added a cupcake from the Cupcake Pop-Up decorated to match.
I love all the different hearts that are included with the Katherine Label, so used them here for embellishments.
The bow on the cupcake got some shading with a Copic marker, then a coat of Glossy Accents. I used coordinating colours of Nuvo Crystal Drops on the cupcake icing and the cherry also got some Glossy Accents.
Below you can see how dimensional the Katherine Label Pop-Up is. You can place it anywhere you want on the fold and I like that I get to choose the size of card to make. This one is one of my go-to sizes ... 6" x 5", which fits nicely in a 5 x 7" envelope.
It's Saturday so that means a new challenge at the Crazy 4 Challenges Blog. Rebecca Ednie is our hostess this month and our Guest Designer for September is Teresa Kline. You can see Teresa's blog HERE.
This is Rebecca's challenge: Inspiration Challenge - be inspired by this photo. Please use a cake or mint/aqua, coral, gold
and white or ivory. Brownie points for doing both!

This card will probably go to my SIL for her birthday.
