The CPS sketch this week is a tough one. I have a couple pieces of dp that are lined up to try it, and this is the first attempt. You can see the sketch HERE. Since my stash of cards is short on masculine cards, I am trying to make some to have on hand. This one uses CTMH paper, and soft sky scraps. I sent the SS throught the Cuttlebug with one of the oval Nestabilities dies, then sent it through to emboss it. The "frame" that results from this embossing is then watercolored with Close to Cocoa. The smaller oval is also from the Nestabilities set and the stamp is from Hambo Stamps. The hardware is We R Memory Keepers and the sentiment is MFT, Icing on the Cake. 
This next card is from the Eclectic Paperie Mission: Hey There Cupcake! that was issued with the purchase of the exclusive Stampendous stamp set. This is a fabulous set, with a bunch of interchangeable cupcake tops and bases. Plus a great selection of words to put together a custom sentiment! The dp on this card is from Miss Elizabeth's that I got at the dollar store. Ribbon is from my stash and the other layers are scraps. The rhinestones are also from my stash. I am trying to use my embellishments before buying anything new. So far, so good.

I like what you have done! The cupcake card is especially adorable. How did you do the different color dots on the cupcake wrapper?
