I used the heart border die and the pre-printed image and die from Nostalgic Notions. I die cut the star using the two smallest stars from MFT's Star Stax. I wasn't completely sold on how the heart border looked, thinking it was too busy, so I made another more CAS card using the same design.
Both of the sentiments are from PTI's For The Graduate.
I'm also adding one of these cards to the following challenges:

ReplyDeletecool design! I didn`t dare making a cake, somehow creating cakes intimidates me, haha, but yours is really cool!
ReplyDeletesuper! great card and great idea!
ReplyDeleteTotally love both of these cards, Birgit! Great CASE of Amy's card :-)
ReplyDeleteAwesome take on Amy's beautiful cake card, Birgit. Both versions look great and perfect for graduates. Thanks for the idea!
ReplyDeleteThese are fabulous! I love that you were inspired, but still very much did your own thing.
ReplyDeleteYou made great use of your inspiration! Love your festive cake with star and scallops! I wouldn't have thought of using that softly sponged background, but it's just right on the card.
ReplyDeleteThese are both great looking cards. I like the one with the heart border, it just add a bit more texture. The sponged background just makes the cake want to pop right off the card. Looks beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteOh, I love these, Birgit -- and how we both used the heart border die for our cakes! Great minds think alike! ;)
ReplyDeleteBoth of these cards are just wonderful! I really love the cake. Thank you so much for playing along with us over at the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog this week :)
