Category: Make a Cake

It’s a Patio Party

My brother, sister and I had a surprise party for my dad’s 80th birthday.  I thought I’d share with you a few of the things I did to add to the celebration. 

First – invitations made with Make a Cake and the layout cased from Connie Babbert (thanks Connie!)  Here’s some of the decorations –

Patio Party flags for the cupcakes made in My Digital Studio (Patio Party
Collection DVD (p. 199)
) and little cupcakes made from votive candles.

And big tissue paper pom-poms!  These were taken before the tables were set – but you get the idea.  And, of course, party favors – made with a combo of the My Digital Studio and the Fancy Favor Big Shot die –

These were perfect for a two piece box of bourbon balls, a rustic pencil and a little bottle of Maker’s Mark!  Great party!  Hugs, Fran



Casing the Catalog 5

I have a feeling that this is going to be one of my “go to” sets –  Make a Cake (page 45, 126340/126342).  My pennants look a bit larger than those in the catalog.  The idea is to punch them out and then trim them down (I’m just guessing here!) 

Stamp Set – Make a Cake, A Word for You
card stock – Midnight Muse, Primrose Petal, Whisper White, Subtle Collection Pattern DSP, Patio Party DSP
Ink – Midnight Muse, Primrose Petal, Summer Starfruit, Baja Breeze
Etc – Dazzling Details,  Beautiful Wings embosslit, Baker’s Twine, Scallop Border punch, Petite Pennants punch

Then you can add a tag –

Enjoy!  Hugs, Fran
