Clean & Simple Cupcake

Hey there!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter weekend!

Today's card is for the CAS(E) This Sketch #21 (Clean and Simple).

Believe it or not, it's not as "simple" as I thought it would be, as I love to junk-it-up LOL!  I really had to hold myself back from adding too many embellishments or colorful papers.


I recently received my SU! goodies, and couldn't wait to use my new stamp set: SU! Best of Birthdays.

This lil' stamp is just adorable and I inked it with Memento Tuxedo Black, then colored it in using my SU! Blending Pen along with SU! Old Olive, and other chalks by Studio G.
 
If you're looking for some inspiration for a Clean And Simple creation, here's the sketch:
