I am having so much fun with my new Build a Cupcake punch from Stampin’ Up! It coordinates with the stamp set called Create a Cupcake. One of the features I like best about the cupcake punch is the little tiny candle and a flame. The flame is such a bonus . . . do you have any idea how hard it is to free hand cut a flame? Easier said than done, trust me! The best way to adhere the flame piece to your card is to squirt just a teeny tiny dab of Multipurpose Liquid Glue onto a scrap of paper, use your paper piercing tool and touch the end of it to the glue and use it like a pick up stick. When you do this, it is easy to pick up the flame, flip it over and place it where ever you want it. In this case, I actually attached the flame directly to the candle because I wanted to raise the cupcake up with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I used the confetti dots to make a division between the cupcake and the sentiment below it.
The inside panel of my card is very simple, but it keeps the cupcake theme going. It’s just so easy to stamp the cupcake onto scrap, punch out and adhere the pieces where ever you want them to be. Have a great day and keep on Stamping to Share!!

This is adorable Kay!! I've loved everything you've done with this, but I gotta tell you what a goober I am. Sometimes you think something so dumb you gotta tell on yourself. I got a bit behind in my mail, and I was looking through all of it, and I kept seeing 1/2 cupcake, then 1/3 cupcake posts from you. I kept wondering what amazing thing did she think of to do with half of a cupcake punch, then a third of it!! lol Took me 3 days and actually opening one of the emails to realize that was Jan 2, 3, etc. lol
