I'm sure you all getting a little tired of cupcake cards. I know I am! But when I read about the Tuesday Technique Challenge on my favorite Stampin' Up! online hangout, Stampin Addicts, I just had to pull out the Crazy For Cupcakes set again! The challenge is Faux Tile Tech31 and I decided to make one of those cards that look like the window of a bakery. The color challenge is from the Cards & Things Challenge blog.
Now this was my first time using the Glassy Glaze Enamel Embossing Powder, so things got a little messy. So be gentle. Here's my bakery shop card:
The light cast a funky sheen over the "window", but IRL it's nice and shiny. Next Tuesday I'll post instructions on how to do the Faux Tile technique. I'm thinking of making Tuesday's "How To Tuesday". The card base is Chocolate Chip layered with Mellow Moss. The "curtain" is a piece of Rose Red Stitched Grograin. To make the ruffle, I pulled on the top stitch and knotted the ends of the white thread. The brads help hold it all in place.

Thanks for stopping by!
Happy Stamping!
