Frosting on the Cake!

While surfing this weekend I ran across a card by Chat at "Me My Stamps & I." I found her idea for the cake frosting to be just too cute to pass up. Her sample used decorative paper. Both decorative paper or card stock will work for this. I was SO thrilled with making this cake (easiest cake I ever made!!! lol) I was going to use the SplitCoastStampers Sketch Challenge for the layout but as I was trying to put it together it just didn't look right. Then I remembered I had printed out the Weekend Sketch Challenge Beate had. I sometimes print these out but have yet to do one. Well, this weekend I did it!!! It's fun when you can mix a couple of different papers together and make it work, isn't it??? I tried to stick to the sketch as much as possible but the wording just didn't work well so I moved it off to the side. But for the most part it's Beate's weekend sketch!

For this card I used Chocolate Chip, Groovy Guava and Whisper White card stock. I used decorative paper, chocolate grosgrain ribbon, a brad, Dazzling Diamonds, Dimensionals, Scallop Punch, Birthday Whimsy and So Many Scallops stamp sets. It was a fun card to do and a fun sketch to play with.

All products on this card are Stampin' Up! materials. Click here to find more cards and projects that are made entirely of Stampin' Up! materials.

Thank you SO much for stopping by,
