The quilted background is a stamp from W Plus 9 called Quilt Print. I stamped it using GKD Sweet Corn, Bubblegum & Wild Wisteria inks. I then added a rectangle of Vellum that I stitched on three sides, filled with some sequins in pink, gold & silver and then stitched it closed. I added the sentiment and a fun little cupcake with sparkly icing.
