Berry Icing

 

My Mom used to decorate cakes when I was a child. My siblings and I fought over the leftover "roses" made of icing, as my Mom made several extra just in case they didn't turn out good/got ruined. YUM....sugar overload! Such wonderful memories of my Mom! This Stampin' Up! set -- 'Icing on the Cake' reminded me of her and all the wonderful, tasty cakes she used to make.

I got inspiration for my creation from the Stampin' Up! Catalog showcasing this stamp set.
The stamp set is what's called a 'Two-Step' stamp set, which means there are two stamps for every flower and leaf. I used Berry Burst and Powder Pink on the center and outer flowers. The other two was created just by using Powder Pink.... but the background is stamped off on a scrap piece of paper before stamping on the flower (creates a softer color than the original).

Thanks for taking a peek!
