Here is what I used:

Stamp set: Heartfelt Blooms (SAB 2018) and Flourishing Phrases
Card stock: Thick Whisper White, Sweet Sugarplum
Inks: Smoky Slate, Sweet Sugarplum and Stampin' Blends

Thanks for coming by!!  Mary

Icing on the Cake

When the new annual catalog came out last July, I spotted this stamp set and knew it would be on my list to have, as I use to decorate cakes for awhile when my daughters' were young.  They loved it when Mom have left-over icing to have on either graham crackers or vanilla wafers!  Makes me want to get my cake decorating supplies out and make a real cake now!!

Now I made this "no calorie" cake for my uncles' upcoming birthday, I hope he likes it!!


Here are the details:

Stamp sets: Icing on the Cake and Stylized Birthday
Card stock: Thick Whisper White, Flirty Flamingo and Whisper White
Inks: Calypso Coral (I forgot I was using Flirty Flamingo) and Pear Pizzazz

It's not a hard card to make and I will be using this set some more in the future!

I found this cute card on Jackie B. blog, she was kind in sharing the measurements for all of the card stock.  Since it used some bright colors, I knew Linda would like it!


Here is the inside of the card too.
