Wish Big - Cupcake

Linda came down on Friday and we of course had to go to the scrapbook store! They had some new paper in by Cratepaper called Party Day Collection and I had to get a few sheets. The cupcake and the scrabble tile paper is from the collection.

Supplies Used:
Cratepaper Party Day
Graphic 45 stripe paper
Bazzil Swiss Dot 
Stampin Up Punches
  - 2 3/8" Scallop Circle
  - Ticket Punch
Stampin Up Wish Big Stamp
Stampin Up Paper Piercing guide
EK Success 2" Circle Punch
Janome Sew Mini
Colorbox Chalk Ink


When I saw this paper I fell in love with the cupcake prints on the paper and while I didn't originally think about punching them out I did find it made for some fast and easy cards.

I pierced around the circle using one of the Stampin Up Paper Piercings Pack Essential guides. It sure makes it a lot easier to get even piercings!

Much to my relief the stamp did well on the Bazzil Swiss Dot cardstock. and I like the effect of the texture.

I'll be posting another card this week from the Party Day Collection.

    very cute and love the layering. can you answer 2 questions? i have a janome sew mini. what are your settings to get a nice even stitch? i can't seem to get my bobbin in the right place. i also have the SU paper piece thingy. i can't seem to figure out how to use it on circles.

    Kat I haven't touched any settings since I got my Janome Mini. Are yo sure you have the bobbin loaded correctly? If is loaded wrong it does make a difference in the stitches. The paper piercing thing I have has 3 sheets to it and one of the sheets has circles on it. I just line up the outer edge of the circle as best as I can and then punch like one or two dots in, depending on where I want my piercings to be.
