Happy Birthday Cupcake

I had a rare Saturday off today so I thought I'd put it to good use so I made a trip to the local scrapbook store (The Scrapper Boutique) to pick up some new papers.  After making my purchase I came home and sat down at my craft table to make a card for this weeks  Tiddly Inks Challenge.  I recently picked up her super cute  Cupcake Bugg image and wanted to ink it up.  Here is the card I made for the challenge.

I colored the image using Copic markers.  I used my Spellbinders Oval and Beaded Oval dies. I also ran the oval beaded piece through my Cuttlebug using my Swiss Dot folder.  I paired the image with this yummy paper from. My Minds Eye Indie Chic collection.  (Nutmeg Rainbow Paper), Recollections chocolate textured and kraft paper.  I made the candles by rolling  2 x1.5 inch pieces of paper up and gluing them closed.  I then used a marker to make the stripes.  For the wick, I just added a small piece of embroidery floss to the centers of them, gluing them in place.  The sentiment was cut using my Cricut and George cart.  Some recollections pearls and a bow on the candles added the finishing touch!
