C'mon and Play - July Contest

I got my start on the Treehouse Design Team by playing along with their monthly contest. Every month, Ashley gives out a free image for you to make a card with. The cards are voted on and a Guest Designer is named for the following month. Along with being a Guest Designer, you get that month's release for free (who doesn't want free stamps)...and a gift certificate to use for even more stamps! So move on over to the Treehouse Blog and see how you can play along!

This month's image is a good one - here it is!

Here's my sample for the July contest image...cupcakes are always so yummy! I didn't want to do anything that was "expected" so I used the Basic Grey Green At Heart paper and went "Orange." I added lots of glitter with the stickles, and dew drops for the sprinkles. I love how it turned out, although I'm pretty sure this one will be taking extra postage at the post office!

Now that you see what I've done, go ahead and try for yourself!
