seize the cake!

June is a busy celebratory month in our family. Seven birthdays--our daughters are two days apart!--and a sprinkling of anniversaries, too.


Here's a quick card that I made using one of Torico's new digital stamps. Love the wonky birthday cake! I colored it with Copics and added Glossy Accents to the frosting and Diamond Stickles on the candle flames.


I scrunched and stapled a colorful ribbon (Thank you, Kelly!) and the sentiment is by Hero Arts.

You can find this birthday cake digital stamp here in Torico's Etsy shop, Birdie Brown. She also generously offers occasional freebies on her blog. Check it out!

Stamps: Torico's digital stamp, Hero Arts sentiment
Cardstock: Papertrey Ink, Paper Accents
Ink: Versafine
Others: Copics, Glossy Accents, Diamond Stickles, ribbon, dimensional adhesive, stapler
