Co-Worker Birthday!


We celebrated a co-worker's birthday this week! I decided to make her cake instead of buying one.  Well, the cake did come out moist and yummy but I am no decorator!  The You Tube videos make it look so easy! I am not going to give up!  I am going to practice any time I can.  This may hurt my New Year's resolution to lost weight but I feel I must perfect my decorating skills!  Look for more pictures of my practice sessions!

I wanted to share the card I made for the birthday celebration!  I took a class with my sisters at Stamped Designs in Dover, NH. Jeanette's Mom taught the class.  I loved using our Copic Markers to color the fine glitter.  The background circle is made using the Spellbinder's die that I believe is called the Fleur de lis.  I have a 3 day weekend this weekend so I am hopeful to spend some time in my studio.  Hope your weekend is fun!

  3. I'm sure your cake was a big hit, and it takes practice to perfect anything. Looks like you've had plenty of practice making cards - this one is beautiful
