Piece of Cake: Happy Birthday!!



Hi!! Today I have a fun 3D piece of cake box to share with you today!! 




I created the cake box using the Cricut's Sweet Tooth Boxes Projects Cartridge. I cut it at the booklets suggested size of 10.75 using the Cricut Craft Room and my expression. I added white gel pen stitching on the side.


I added a face to the top from Peachy Keen's new PK-1202 The Moodies 2 1/4" using jet black Stazon on ink. I then paper pieced the eyes and mouth on white card stock. I colored them in with Copic markers.



The cute little candle was stamped and cut out from PKSC-December 2012 Stamp Of The Month set. I colored it too with Copic markers. I added Stickles Glitter and Inkssentials Glossy Accents to the body. The Happy Birthday sentiment also comes from this set.


I finished it off by adding Offray's Small Ivory Satin Rosettes with a hot glue gun. I thought they looked so much like decorative icing. I was so fortunate when I went to buy them they rang up for a penny at Michaels. How sweet is that? 

Peachy Keen Stamps is having a great sale through April 12th on their new April Releases!! These new stamps are cute as can bee!! 
Also, Tanya and Cassandra are hosting some great release challenges over at the Peachy Keen Connection and would love for you to join in. There is a $25 gift certificate that will be given away to one lucky participant.

I'm entering this in the Fantabulous Cricut challenge #155 - Color and Shape
