Make a Cake Circle Thinlit Card

 I think Birthday cards are my most favorite kind of card to make. This one features the Circle Thinlits along with lots of other fun Stampin' Up! product (Make a Cake, Starburst Sayings, Banner Greetings, and Yippe Skippee stamp sets and Fresh Prints Designer Series Paper Stack). I extended this card a bit to include a flap so I could add a message and some more fun stamping. This card measures 4-1/4" X 9-1/2".

     

                     
I used the Silver Glimmer paper and the shapes included in the Circle Thinlit pack to add a bit of fun accents onto my card. All of the above is included in the Circle Thinlits pack. There are so many possibilities and options. I love this Thinlit and use it often when I want to make a Wow card for a friend. This one went to my good friend Samantha. Happy Birthday Sam!

Make a Cake in Purple

Today is my sister's birthday! Happy Birthday Deneen. I made this card last December but never shared it. I love the white on white look!  I  layered the whites over a Wisteria Wonder card base. I used a sponge dauber to ink up the cake. Next, I added some shimmer with the Dazzling Details. The shimmer doesn't come across well in this picture but it is really cute in person.

Well, I am off to get ready for the 9 year old's birthday sleepover. He has invited 9 boys!!!!! Pray for me (LOL) I have lots of fun activities to keep them busy and a movie to end the night. I wonder how long they will last. In two weeks, we are doing this again with a birthday sleepover for my daughter and her friends. I know, call me crazy.

Make a Cake!

Happy Friday! I absolutely LOVE Fridays!!!! They bring me closer to Saturdays, my sleep in day!

Today's card is from Alicia's recent Paper Party. It looks remarkably like a card I shared last August (LOL). Take a peek! I changed it up a bit. In August I used an embossing folder on the card base and didn't add any additional layers. On this card, I didn't use the embossing folder, instead layering the white onto Baja Blue card stock. Along with the added layer I used Dazzling Diamonds glitter to add a bit of glitz to the cake. The ladies at Alicia's party really liked this card and it was easy to replicate.

Make a Cake Birthday Card

Happy Friday! Have you bought this stamps set yet? It's called, Make a Cake, p. 44. It was one of the first sets that I bought in the new catalog. I love the versatility of the cake. There are several ways you can build it and many options for decorating it. I added some  Dazzling Details to make it sparkle a bit. Not too long ago I saw a card that used the Decorative Label punch, p. 182, and the punch was matted. I liked it so much I decided to copy that technique for this card. I Crumb Cake for the matting, by punching two additional Crumb Cake pieces. I cut them each in half. One the long way and the other across the middle. I then adhered them in a frame like fashion around the cake stamped on the Very Vanilla card stock. It looks like another punch but it is more of a pieced together framing. Quite easy to do and adds to the focal point on this card.

This card follows the same simple layout of the card I posted two days ago. There are a couple of differences. I added a strip of the First Edition Specialty paper, p. 162 and another of my favorite accessories, Antique Brads, p. 174.
