Sparkling Cowberry Cupcakes

Hi & Hello!
Happy Sunday to you! Today's card uses Tilda With Cowberry Muffin & Cowberry Muffin stamps from Magnolia-Licious. I had never heard of a cowberry; turns out these are also called lingonberries (have you had the lingonberry jam at Ikea? SO good).

Here in Newfoundland we call them Partridgeberries; I had a slice of Partridgeberry cake with tea for breakfast and never knew of the coincidence until I looked it up.

Anyhoo, let's pretend these are cupcakes because they sure look like cupcakes sprinkled with sparkly crystal sugar to me, and are much more appetizing when I think of them that way :)

Card Details

Tilda was colored with Copic markers, then her dress and her muffins were accented with Crystal Stickles and Pastel Raspberry Liquid Pearls. Her wings are tinted a sparkly blue with Waterfall Stickles.

I borrowed my friend's Stampin' Up! Oval Scallop Frame Bigz die to cut the scallop and oval, then edged the Cameo Rose textured cardstock frame with Crystal Stickles. The base of the card is Creamy Caramel textured cardstock; the green checked paper is Humpty Dumpty by American Crafts from the Baby collection.

The die cut flourishes are Spellbinders Floral Accents; I added some flatback pearls and Prima roses to them. A small bit of ribbon adds a pretty accent to the frame; K&Co. rhinestones add sparkle and shine.

Thanks for stoppin' by, I hope you have a crafty and creative day.

Oh Suzy, I just love this cowberry muffin Tilda and the colors!!! That gingham is just perfect and reminds me of country or kitchen. I have tons of gingham paper so this gives me the perfect idea. You never cease to amaze me with all your wonderful projects. I wish I could take home this card you made LOL! Absolutely wonderful. Hugs, Cami

Hey Christine! I ADORE my Liquid Pearls. I use the White Opal the most, followed by the Pastel Raspberry and Ruby Red (I mix the red into other colors please see my Rosettes tutorial for how). I use the Mint Green for leaves too. I get them at Sweet n Sassy Stamps Store - they are only like $2 there, after my Craft Critique article she sold out but I think she has more on the way.
hugs,
Suzy
