What makes YOU happy?

I don't know about you but for me a job well done...the job isn't yet done but I am feeling quite pleased with myself as I get ready to tidy up for the night...I am working on the last cake that I am going to make this summer (I've done more than I did in the whole last year!)


So here it is...the top layer




and...the bottom layer...


I am still working on it but I am quite pleased at the work I have completed thus far with very little complaint...outside of my DH complaining about the mess!

I am hoping this is going to be a beauty as it is for someone special...so I will post some more tomorrow but you will have to wait for final assembly...(I'm afraid we all will)

Enjoy and have a great night!

Well, I may have squeezed in a bit of stamping...I wanted to try a new colour combination with the 2007 In Colours...Here is what I came up with;I just love Baroque Motifs...there is something about it...it just catches my eye everytime I open my cupboard...all of my other stamps are feeling neglected these days!
Here is what I used to complete this project;
Stamps: Baroque Motifs
Paper: Blue Bayou, Sahara Sand, Chocolate Chip
Ink: Blue Bayou, Chocolate Chip and Versa Mark
Accessories: Silver Embossing Powder, Crimper and Chocolate Brad

Hope you enjoy!

Cake, cake and more cake!

Well, I haven't had any time for stamping as I have baked 2 cakes this week and have one more to do before the week is up! So for now, you will have to endure cake photos! I love a theme...a party without a theme is like a car without wheels...so we had the kids party on the weekend and had a Crayola theme...without further adieu here is the cake;The kids loved it!!! Everytime I make one a new cake, there is always a new lesson in it for me! Just one more cake for this weekend and then I am going to take a cake break!

Enjoy!
