Good morning!
It's a brand-new challenge over on the Daring Cardmakers blog, inspired by the phrase "Crowning Glory".
Well, what better excuse to give the brand-new release from The Greetery its first outing:
Stamp and stencil combo: The Greetery - Takes the Cake
Stamps: The Greetery - Sparkler Background
Dies: The Greetery - Takes the Cake, The Greetery - Takes the Cake Banner, The Greetery - Takes the Cake Floral Details, The Greetery - Takes the Cake Stand, Spellbinders - Fluted Classics Rectangles, The Greetery - Bold Numbers, The Greetery - Twisted Crepe
I used the new Takes the Cake product suite, which includes stencils, stamps, and various coordinating dies to create all the elements of the cake.
I used glitter cardstock for the fancy icing details, and metallic cardstock for the cake stand and the numbers crowning the cake.
I just love the colour and design possibilities of this product suite. :D
I also used the Sparkler background stamp as the backdrop for the cake, combined with the Fluted rectangle dies from Spellbinders.
As a finishing touch, I added Twisted Crêpe streamers behind the cake.
Make sure you check out the rest of the projects from the design team here, and play along if you can!
Happy crafting!
