CIC29 - Its All Good

Welcome to another Cupcake Inspiration Challenge for Hope Stamps Eternal!

Wanna hear something silly? I shuddered when I saw this inspiration photo. I fear black and grey on cards...I dont know why, but I really have a hard time adding life to these two colors. Granted the caramel and shiny silver in here really adds a nice oomph to it, but not much...lol.

Okay, so how am I going to replicate these cute cupcakes?

With a Diva of course! LOL. Okay, I went with my standby stash of Basic Grey for this one, the subdued grey pattern is from the Boxer collection, and the brownish dots are from Porcelain. Both are lovely collections...but seriously, have you ever met a Basic Grey collection you just hated? Yeah, me neither...and when you add a healthy dose of pretty bling you really cant go wrong! (The awesome crystal collection in my photo is by Zva Creative, they are super super cheap, $1.99!! HERE is a link to one of the sets, there are three available in the shop, as well as one with pearls!!)

Make sure you swing by Hope Stamps Eternal and check out all the yummy new arrivals to the store!!

And now that you are done here, make sure you stop by the rest of the Sweeties blogs and see what they have been able to come up with for this weeks challenge...(some of them may be posting later in the week though, so you may have to check again later in the week.)
