Today, I’m joining The What’s New at Stampin Up Blog Hop. We are a group of Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from around the world who are Hoppin’ with exciting ideas to share with you. Today we will feature products from the Sale-A-Bration Catalog. I know you will find a lot of wonderful ideas shared here.
Today, I’m using the Happy Birthday To You stamp set, which is one of the FREE Sale-A-Bration stamp sets. I have to be honest, this was not a stamp set that I was excited about. The cake really looked like a wedding cake to me. And it actually would make a great wedding cake on a wedding card. But, the more I saw it being used, the more I really liked it as a over-the-top, fancy birthday cake. I’m sold.
For my cake, I colored it in three different layers, the base cake layer and then two layers of flowers. And you know what? I didn’t even have to hand cut all those flowers. I purchased the coordinating Birthday Dies Set and it made it so much easier.
I love that the coordinating dies made this so much easier to make. And actually, the cake really did turn out beautiful. Almost good enough to eat!
I hope you enjoyed today’s project. If you have any questions about how to put all this together, just let me know.

Lovely card Diane. The blog hop link told me that the site was not available, but when I clicked on home I found it. Thanks for the inspiration.
Very pretty card! Love the cake and how you colored the flowers.
Beautiful Card, I love all the little details, the subtle embossing ,the little touch of bling and the layered flowers.
Who wouldn’t love to get that card for their birthday??
Lovely colours in this card, Diane! And the Subtle Embossing Folder is my current favourite, I think! Thanks for sharing this.
