I used some paper scraps for my background, added a thick lime colored silk ribbon, and a cupcake stamp, which I stamped 3 times in cat eye chalk pigment, I covered the top and bottoms in different colors then stamped on white card stock.  I nipped off the tops of two of the cupcakes, used chalks for the very first time to color them in, then I stamped images from my Fiskars stamps on White card stock, cut them out and added them, making them look as if the balls were pressed into the icing, added Bakers Twine and pop dots.  I think they are adorable.  This card is going to one of my good friends :)
