Cuttlebug Spot D.T. Card~You take the Cake!!!






Happy Sun. All!

Hi~ya All!

Hope all of you are enjoying this Spring/Summer time weather today. It reached 98 degrees here, and it sure has been hot!!!! Today feels more like Summer than Spring, I will be turning on my AC tonight. This is my DT card for the challenge this week at the The Cuttlebug Spot.
There sure are a lot of Cupcakes floating around in cyberspace, almost every challenge is using a cupcake the past couple of weeks. Our theme was to make a card with a cupcake or cake, "You take the cake". Just so happened that I have a stamp with that sentiment. I needed a card for my brother's birthday which is coming up soon, I figured why not kill two birds with one shot. LOL, I used DS and my Celebrations cartridge for the cupcake and balloons, and my HB embossing folder for the background. I also used a crimper on the cupcake paper, giving it more of a 3-d effect. The cupcake is layered five times, and popped with dimensionals. I also used some white puff paint for the cream filling, and and on the icing. The balloons are popped onto wire for the streamers, and a MS punch underneath. The sentiment stamps are from SU, along with the punch. A few rain dots and some inking, and wha-laa, here you have it. I hope you enjoy! Be sure to check out all the other DT members cards,there is some great inspiration here. Now is the time to come join the fun with this challenge!!
TFL, and have a great Monday!
