Before leaving the January-April 2024 Mini Catalog, I wanted to CASE one of my favorite samples. I loved everything about a Cake Fancy sample on page 30, and copied it, almost exactly.
I realized, after starting, that the sample was notecard size, but I used a standard card base of Thick Basic White Cardstock, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. Then, I covered the entire card front with a checked pattern of Perennial Lavender Designer Paper.
Next, I used three of the Cake Fancy stamps to stamp the cake in Pecan Pie Ink on Crumb Cake Cardstock. After stamping, I used a Deckled Rectangles Die for cutting, and attached it to the card front with Dimensionals.
The flowers and leaves were stamped in Moody Mauve Ink, Daffodil Delight Ink, and Old Olive Ink on Basic White Cardstock. Then, I used Paper Snips to fussy cut, which was the time consuming part of this project. After gluing the leaves, I attached the cake decorations with Dimensionals, as they were in the sample.
“Enjoy your special day” was stamped in Old Olive, and cut with A Wonderful Thoughts Die. I usually use die-cut labels for sentiments, because I like the finished edges. To raise the sentiment above the decoration, I stacked two Dimensionals beneath the label.
To complete the card, I added Adhesive Backed Swirl Dots to the flower centers, and a bow of Linen Thread beneath the sentiment label. Now, my sweet tooth is making me want a bite of that cake! And the good news is, the Cake Fancy Stamp Set is carrying over to the new annual catalog, so I can continue to make different flavors of cake!
