Join us in eating cake at the Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge

Good morning to you all in the land of blog

Today sees the first challenge of 2012 for the 


The very talented Andie has chosen the theme this week, which is

Let Them Eat Cake

Oh I just had to use one of my favourite images from the House Mouse range and I hope you spot one of my Christmas presents in this creation.  I will give you a little hint, it is made from fimo :) so I cannot eat it, what a shame.......

I made a birthday card, using a pale blue for the base layer and contrast and some gorgeous pink papers sorry did not write the name down.The image has been cut with the second to smallest grand oval nestie with the matching scallop oval nestie for the trim.  A little lace from Grimsby Crafts some pink liquid pearls a decorative corner from the Hobby House a little airbrushed R85 doily and an array of flowers from local shops.  

The added extra is the little fimo cake slice, yep made by me, just one of the two embellies I have tried so far, but I am sure that more are to follow as it was really easy to do.

Now please don't forget to hop on over to the challenge site where you can see the rest of the Design Teams wonderful inspirational pieces.

I would again like to thank all my wonderful visitors who leave such inspirational comments.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges

Art Impressions - Anything Goes
