It's a cupcake kinda' day

Here's a sweet treat I made for this weeks CAS-ual Friday's Challenge Blog. The challenge is to use a Sweet or a Treat on your clean & simple project.
AND...I got it done before the time ran out to post!!! WHEW!



I used 2 sets from A Muse Studio. Oven Joy and Tini Time (which is on SALE this month!) A little Cinnamon Stickles on the rim of the glass, some yummy Diamond Glitter on the cupcake frosting and Crystal Clear Glaze on the cherries. YUMMY!

CAS-ual Fridays

Have you heard about the new CAS-ual Fridays Blog? Every Friday there will be a new CAS challenge - Clean and Simple. This is gonna be soooo much fun! I LOVE CAS Designs!

Plus....my good friend "Queen Karolyn" is on the design team (aka Girl Fridays) ...so I gotta play along! :)

Their first challenge is all about Texting Skills. Use stamps, texty pattern paper, a page torn from your phone book, or create your own..get creative! Not just a simple sentiment. Incorporate text prominently into your newly created CAS project.

Here's something I came up with.

I stamped the words from my A Muse Studio Thank You Mix set and then applied A Muse Studio Bubblegum glitter with Simple Stick. LOVE the results!
