Hiya,
Are you feeling like you’ve taken a bit of a trip back to the 70’s while looking at this card? Me neither…. Um yes, the colours are a bit 70’s or 80’s-esque. Lucky Limeade, Rich Razzleberry, and Calypso Coral are all quite bright and give that shocking contrast.
I’ve used the gorgeous new Paper Doily Sizzlits Die here, from the Occasions Mini Catalogue. I just love how it turns out, even though I had to use my paper piercing tool to punch out all the little bits. I added that 2” circle in the middle to give the cupcake a more solid/bold background to sit on, which made it really pop.
I made this card for a super awesome special friend of mine because when I thought of using retro colours, she jumped to mind – maybe because we did an 80’s theme wedding shower for her. Bonus – she’s got a February birthday! Happy Birthday, Sara!
