The inspiration piece looks like this--
and it comes form THIS BLOG. (Give credit where it's due! Thanks, Heike!)
Well, I made another one. That cake just got into my brain....
I made this--
BALLOONS! How fun! I love these PTI Balloon images. Nothing as wonderful as a big, fat, bright, round balloon. And cake. Don't forget the chocolate cake.
My cake is fussy cut and popped up on the front there, and totally coated with Glossy Accents.
The star is a separate stamp, but it's fussy cut and Glossy Accented, too.
Maybe this view is better--
Oh, and the inside--
I went outside the lines on those candle flames, thinking they'd look like "glow." I think it worked!
Chalk up another birthday card for the stash!
Thanks so much for stopping by!
All Best--

Oh wow - I just love those balloons. You did a wonderful job on them! I gotta tell you though, as much of a chocolate freak as I am, and I'll admit I am, cake is the one thing I don't like chocolate. Weird huh? Great card!
ReplyDeleteRichard, your cards are amazing!! Especially love the backgrounds on the first two!! You are a true artist!

ReplyDelete"You can't be uncheery with a balloon!" I'm thinking Winnie The Pooh, but googled it and got nuthin!
Nothing says "celebration" like some colorful balloons and your background showcasing the cake is perfect. Love it!
