It's celebration time my friends!! The 4th of July is coming soon, so I thought I'd make a celebratory card focusing on that theme with this darling slice of cake from the new Power Poppy Clear Stamp set called Party Time. Included in this set is a sweet little banner (that I colored "flag style" also), as well as a fabulous variety of sentiments. I colored the cake slice with Copics, and added some sparkly dots using my Quickie Glue Pen and some Micro Fine Opaque White Glitter (Glitter Ritz). For the candle flame I used some Prisma Glitter (Hero Arts) for a little extra sparkle.
I also got out my Minc Machine for the silvery border, and lastly I added some Sequin Stars (Pretty Pink Posh), as well as some rhinestones (Pizzazz Aplenty) to add to the shiny celebration.
