Love these colors and the great design, so fabulous! Tell her I said to get a blog! lol.
Now that is my kind of card design. Love it!
Way to go, Sheila!!! Now I “need” that punch that I was so “meh” about 😉 You need a blog, girl!!!!
Wowzer! Love the colors, design, and special effects! She really ought to have her own blog, eh?
Absolutely stunning card. We need a blog from you!!
What a cute idea for the icing!!! Love your color combo as well. Thanks so much for sharing!! Mary, thanks for sharing her talent as well :o)
FABULOUS card, Sheila!!! My jaw dropped at the cute icing!!! Gonna have to CASE it!!!
Thank you for all of your wonderful comments. The blog will be coming soon.
And to answer a few questions. I used the crimper first and then punched out the cupcake papers. And the same with the icing, I embossed first and then punched out the tops of the cupcakes.
Your comments are so encouraging and they mean so much to me. Sheila
Yes, I used the crimper first and embossed first and then used the cupcake builder punch to punch the cupcake paper and icing. Thank you!
Awesome card, I too now have to have the cupcake punch. Thank you for sharing. Great idea, The frosting is just awesome.
Let us know when you get your own blog.

Great card Sheila! 🙂
Great card! Love the texture on the cupcakes!
I agree, very bold, but not too bold. Love the icing! I agree, I’m wondering about the pleated paper on the cupcake, crimper? Crimp first then cut out with cupcake punch?
What a great idea for the frosting. TFS
Sheila..Your card says HAPPY all the way 🙂 I have a question noone has thus far asked. The cupcake paper holder..did you use the crimper? Your card is creative over the top!!!!
WOWZER! Beautiful! Looks good enough to eat! Love it!
Wow – I love this card. The icing ‘pops’ off the page. This is such a cool card. Thanks for sharing it with us.
CLEVER & CUTE! No need to say more than that! 🙂 Kudo’s to Sheila!
Great job, Sheila! Your cupcakes look so real – I want to reach out and pick one up for a nice gooey bite. 🙂
I echo all the above
This is the most creative cupcake card I’ve ever seen. Great Job…keep that creativity flowing.

Absolutely beautiful! Mary was right, the frosting looks good enough to eat!
This is one of the most beautifully creative cards I’ve seen. I don’t understand how the icing was made. Can anybody help me?
Oh my, I love this card, the color combination and I am really beginning to love the summer smooch DSP. She did an awesome job and so creative. The frosting is superb. Thanks Shelia for being such an inspiration.

This card is great! Agree with Mary… the frosting actually looks edible. Good inspiration for me today, and I sit down to work on a couple of challenge cards.
Way to go Shelia. I am a cake decorator as well and these are wonderful. It made the card so unique and creative using the embossed icing. The whole card is visually interesting. I love it. I think I might have to make one myself! Thanks for sharing your talent.
