What's cooking, cupcake?

I am once again joining Erika our host this month at Art Journal Journey.

Her theme is the color Red.

These yummy cupcakes are perfect for Valentine's Day.

What is cooking cupcake?

I created this entry in layers. I started with an image of cupcakes I had in my stash. I added scraps of pink and white colored scrapbook paper left over from previous entries. I added washi tape in two places, too. I sewed the focal elements in place using red thread. Next, I sewed the focal image to a sheet of red copier/printer paper. I computer generated the words on pink printer/copier paper, then sewed it in place.

Bleubeard and I are thrilled you joined us and hope to see you soon at Art Journal Journey with your own take on the color Red.

This is a wonderful entry for AJJ; thank you. And congrats on the Chiefs winning last night. It was a very good football game. I didn't care who won, but it was fun to watch.
