Sweet Cupcake

Welcome to Punchin' Up!

Cupcake Fun with Frosting

Here is a card I created using the New Stamp Set "Sweet Cupcake" and the New Framelits "Cupcake Cutouts."  Check out the cupcake, doesn't it look like it has real frosting on it. 

 I was playing around with the recipe that they had shared at On Stage in April.  They demonstrated it by dipping the stamp in the frosting mixture and then stamping it on the already stamped image. This is a 3 step stamp to make it look realistic.  Well, I thought what would happen if I  just spread the mixture on the die cut image and letting it dry.  This is what I came up with.  I like the way it turned out.

I would advise that you make sure you don't leave the mixture on the counter top as someone might just try to eat it.  My husband and grandkids thought it looked like real frosting.  

Frosting Recipe:

1/4 cup corn starch

1 Tablespoon of white glue

1  Tablespoon of Acrylic Paint 

Drops of reinker, which ever color you want the frosting (I used Melon Mambo)

Drops of water to make it the consistence you want it.
