 Greetings friends! I went with an older clear set favorite called "Cupcakes." Who doesn't like cupcakes? I tend to use them year-round in my stamping, so they are also very practical.

To make the card, I stamped my cupcake tower onto white cardstock in black Memento ink and colored it with Copic markers. I then added a few extra details with some colored pencils. I then cut out by circles with some layering circle dies.

For the background, I stamped the Faceted Cover a card background onto white cardstock using IO Taupe ink. I wanted the lines to be less harsh than black, so I chose the grey instead. Next, I colored some of the areas using Prismacolor pencils. 

To finish the card, I added my sentiment from the same set and popped up a cupcake that I fussy cut by hand.

 

Here is what the stamp set looks like:
