STAMPING WITH EMBOSSING FOLDER

Hello my friends!!!!
Stamping with embossing folder!Did you ever try???How fun is this technique and how beautiful backgrounds you can make.I try it for the very first time and LOVE it.I use ScrapBerry's embossing folder and I inked it and spray with mini minister(since I don't have liquid ink yet) and press on cardstock and look how cool effect you get.This card is HLS February CAS Challenge--


and if you go over on their blog there are few links with tutorials on this technique.
For finishing my card I die cut butterfly out of moosgummi and shrink it.From glitter moosgummi I die cut birthday(Clearly Besotted) and the word happy are glittery stickers.

My inspiration from the photo is to make a pink card with cupcakes and hearts.
First I use my mini heart stencil and inked it with pale pink ink.I cut a two hearts,one pink and one white and embossed it (ScrapBerry's  embossing folder).From the stamp set "Afternoon Tea"(also ScrapBerry's) I stamped two cupcakes and colored them with my watercolor pencils.The sentiment is from the same stamp set and I embossed it in silver on vellum,make three banner's(vellum,white and pink) and all together set on the card.
