This was such a fun card to create! With the adorable stamps and dies from Trinity Stamps, the Candle Light device that allows the candle to light up from Pear Blossom Press, this interactive card was not only fun, it was also easy to make. I really hope you make this card for someone you love. I promise they will love it!!! Crafty hugs, Lisa~
Supplies for Cupcake Kisses & Candlelight Wishes
Check out the full list of supplies at the end of this post.
Step One:
Cut the papers as follows~ Purple cardstock 10″W x 6″H folded in half to create the card base 5″W x 6″H. Next, cut three patterned papers 4 3/4″W x 5 3/4″H. Adhere the striped paper to the front of the base card and the checkered papers on the inside of the card.
Step Two:
Using the black inkpad, stamp the top part of the cupcake onto a piece of patterned paper and the bottom of the cupcake and the sentiment onto pieces of white cardstock.
Step Three:
Die cut each piece as shown in the photo. From pink cardstock, die cut one side of the double cupcake die. Next, die cut the stamped images from step 2, and then die cut the candle and “WISH” from blue and purple glittered papers. Lastly, die cut the center of the cupcake from tan cardstock and the flame of the candle from vellum. Use watercolor pencils to color the three cupcake pieces and adhere the pieces together. Cut off the flame from the candle and adhere the vellum flame piece in it’s place. Adhere the candle to the cupcake and the “WISH” letters to the sentiment.
Step Four:
On the back of the cupcake, line up the top of the candle light with the vellum on the candle and tape the unit down to secure it in place. Use a pencil to mark the spot on the front of the cupcake where the on/off switch is located.
Step Five:
To finish the card, adhere the cupcake to the pink paper and adhere it to the card base. Using the black inkpad, stamp “Push” over the pencil mark on the cupcake. Stamp two sentiments on pink cardstock and one sentiment on white cardstock, and then die cut them out. Apply a dab of glue to the card and add the confetti. Adhere the sentiments and the rhinestone sticker to the front and the “Make a Wish” sentiment inside the card. See the finished photo for placement if needed.
