Man Cake...


This was created for 
Craft Your Passion Challenge #141 
"Recipe: 3 Patterned Papers, 1 circle and 1 ribbon or twine"
You can see some wonderful inspiration on this theme HERE!
Enter your creations by Sunday December 23, 2012 for the chance to win a prize from: 
Delicious Doodles


This is "Man Cake" from Delicious Doodles - the candle is from an image called "Dancing Candles" by The Artful Stamper - after coloring the images, I fancy cut the candle, sculpted it from the back and mounted it on foam tape for added dimension.  I then made a slit at the top of the cake and inserted the candle.  I had punched a circle in the image panel and taped DP behind the panel to provide "glow" for my flame.

PAPER:  Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 80# Cover Wt. used for the images; DP is from Basic Grey - "Life of the Party" Paper Pad; base CS is Georgia Pacific
EMBELLISHMENTS:  Circle punch used behind flame and DP taped to back;  Blue ribbon from stash.

    This is a fabulous masculine card. I love the effect with the glow behind the candle. Clever idea. The matted layers create a wonderful backdrop for this fun image. Cute little bow detail, too.
