This little beauty is based on this week's
One Layer Wednesday Challenge: Baby Cakes. At first I thought, "How does Susan know what my husband, Corey, calls me?" but then I realized that it was
actual baby cakes we were to be inspired by - not by one of the many nicknames I go by around these parts! Go to the Cake Wrecks blog (if you haven't seen this site go check it out - what a hoot) and be inspired by the cakes from
this particular post.
I was not in a
baby card inspired from actual baby cakes kinda mood but this tree caught my eye - love the initials carved into it!! Grabbed a bunch of
A Muse|Studio supplies:
Woodland Friends stamp set,
Sage Gingham paper,
Lime Organdy Polka-dot Ribbon,
Grass die,
Sky dots twinkle stickers and some
Copic markers and set to work.
It amazes me sometimes how much mess I can make and then end up with only a 3 1/2" square card in the end. Folding the gingham paper to the inside is out of the norm and fun. My favorite part (and Corey's too) are our initials that I "carved" into the tree's trunk (a teeny bit of tape masked off the area of the tree stamp that I didn't want to print). Gotta dash - duty calls - a trip to the grocery is in order so that we have some milk and other staples around this place!!
