Taylored Expressions Cupcake Challenge #43

Happy Friday everyone! I am so ready for the weekend. I need to go shopping for birthday goodie bags for Josh's 4th birthday party. We are having it at the Houston Fire Museum next Saturday and I have nothing ready. Eeekkk!! Oh well, it's going to be low key so I'm going to try and not stress. Anywho, back to stamping. Today Taylor has come up with another fun sketch for us. I decided to pull out my My Favorite Things Cupcake set that was released earlier this month. I love these yummy little guys. I watercolored everything and added some TE glitter. The brad is from Doodlebug designs. The dotted background stamp is also from MFT and it comes in the "Setting the Stage" set. The patterned paper is from SEI and the card stock is from Papertrey Ink and SU. I really love the retro feel of this card. It reminds me of an old fashion soda shoppe. Yumm! So if you want to play along here are all the details.

1.You're not required to use cupcakes for the challenge, but if you got 'em why not use 'em!? :)
2.You're welcome to create something other than a card, just stick as closely to the sketch as possible and you'll be eligible for the prize drawing!
3.If you're uploading to Splitcoast use keyword TECC43 (for Taylored Expressions Cupcake Challenge 43 or link your creation on this post.
4.Each week, I plan to have a Featured Cupcake Sampler! The cutest and most creative sample from the previous week will receive the featured cupcake sampler honors. The winner will receive the sketch ahead of time in order to create a card that will be featured along with a link to your blog on Cupcake Friday!
5.Featured Cupcake Sampler this week Laura Fredrickson is from Scrapnextras!
