double cupcake challenge!

I've had this fun cupcake stamp from Rubbernecker for a while now - how cute is that? and perfect to fill 2 challenges this week: Taylor's Cupcake Sketch #54 and Libby's challenge, From Courtney's Closet #29! The main image is colored with Prismacolor pencils, blended with OMS, with a few gel pen highlights here and there. I used Shimmerz on the frosting (you can see that better down below), and Spica pink glitter pen on the cherries. the sentiment is from Heart & Soul Rubber Stamp Co.

A tip on Shimmerz, too - I store mine upside-down. I shake them well before I use them, then I have two choices. For a thicker glitterier look (that's a word, right?) I pick up my paint from the lid - there's usually a pretty healthy layer of glitter still there. For a more opaque sparkle, I pick up paint from the tub.

Hope you're having a great weekend!
