I haven’t played along for a while, so I thought it was about time to tackle another Global Design Project Challenge.

This week was a sketch challenge –

GDP018

When I saw it, I immediately knew what I could do.  I had been playing around with one of the stamps from the Party Wishes set, all I had to do was give it a background.  Here’s what I came up with :

my paper oasis, GDP#018, Party wishes, birthday card, birthday cake, ombre cake

When I saw this cake, I was inspired to ice it ‘ombre’ style from an amazing local cake decorator. I love her work, so I replicated it here on the cake using pool party, bermuda bay and pacific point inks.  You will need your stamp-a-ma- jig to get this one right, or have a go with colour markers.

I also added glitter to the cake using the clear wink of stella brush (how amazing is that tool – I think I’m in love!) which you can see a bit of in this next pic.  It’s sooooooo pretty!

And of course, you can’t have a gorgeous card without the inside with a bit of decoration too. It makes it all that more special!

Why not have a go and play along with the design team!

We will be playing with loads of new products just like this in my upcoming classes – so take a look at the class page and come along and join the fun.
