Morning! What a great weekend as the weather co-operated and we did tons of 'preparing for winter' stuff. Ok, my DH did it all but I did oversea most of the projects. I was in charge of drinks and treats! :) It is October 4 and who knows when Ol' Man Winter will show his face!
I did a little switcheroo with the sketch today along with a little softer side. I tend to do bright, vibrant cards but when I saw this stamp by Stamping Bella, Gwendolyn Lulu, I knew I needed to go more pretty! I added some Stickles to the flowers and Crystal Effects to the icing....yummy, Chocolate!!!
It is the beginning of the month over at the Mojo Monday blog so you know that means prizes right! Upload your card/project with Mr Linky using the keyword MOJO159 and you could win a Verve set of your choice! So play along! Ciao!
Stuff: Stamps - Stamping Bella Gwendolyn Lulu; Paper - Kraft, Spring Rain, Cream, Jack & Jill dp; Supplies - SU ribbon, MFT Die-namics scalloped scallop, Prima flower, PTI button, Copics, Stickles, Crystal Effects
That is very pretty. To have a piece of cake that big...YUM! It's only in the high 7os today...and you think winter is coming? :D

Your card is gorgeous. I love how you turned the sketch on its side and used the single flower.
