{A cupcake Birthday} September Diva Inspiration Hop


Hi everyone!!

welcome to our September Inspiration Blog Hop. This months theme: 
Sweet September
Sugar-high! Get sugary sweet with pastels, cupcakes or candy. Create a calorie free confection to delight the senses!

I went a bit more clean and simple with my card this month: using the Verve Carpe Cupcake stamp set and the sentiment from the Borderline set. I embossed the brown strips with a polka dot embossing folder - it's a little hard to see in the picture but it goes along great with the polka dot ribbon. :)


Need a little inspiration? Check out the blogs linked below to see what the other Divas did with the challenge! It's sure to be a treat, and speaking of treats, we've got a prize for one lucky commenter along the hop! Check out the Verve Blog today for all the prize info and deadlines!

    So pretty. I love your stitching the big diagonal stripes. I like the way your sentiment curves with the shape of the cupcake top.

    I love the stitching and that dog-eared corner. Very cute and playful. And the use of dark brown to ground it all makes me hungry.. chocolate!!! :)
