Mailable Monday - Sweet Cake

Hi stampers!  Mmmmmm, cake!  My birthday is next month and I'm already trying to decide what kind of cake I want my mom to make me.  It's usually between a strawberry jello poke cake and her no-bake cheesecake.  It's such a hard decision that I usually ask for both, LOL!

I tried really hard to resist the sweet cake set and sweet shop DSP in the occasions mini but I finally caved.  At least it doesn't have any calories like REAL cake, right?  :-)

This set it totally cute and kind of mod or retro.  And I really bought it because I loved the font on the sentiments, lol!    And I couldn't pass up the fun patterns and bright colors in the coordinating DSP.  And this DSP is special because a couple of the patterns are embossed so they really stand out! I just love how SU makes it so easy to put together projects with so many coordinating products!

This is my first card with this set and I love it!  I was going for a bright and kind of monochromatic look here and again, trying to use more white space:

Stampin' Supplies:
Stamps:  Sweet cake
Paper:  Whisper white, calypso coral, poppy parade, sweet cake DSP
Ink:  Calypso coral, poppy parade
Accessories:  Two-way glue pen, dazzling diamonds, fashionable hearts embosslit

Isn't it fun?  And bright?  Haha!  But I love it.  It's very sparkly in real life and I love the dimension the hearts on the DSP add.  I can't wait to send this to someone!  Cake without the calories;-)

Happy stamping!

  1. Love this one, Mindy! I didn't get that set and now I'm rethinking that decision. The sparkle adds so much wow to the card, too. Very pretty! :)

Thanks for your comments. I probably won't respond unless you ask a direct question (because I know my limits, lol) but I read and appreciate every single one <3
