Hi Stampers:
Just when you thought a handmade card stamped with Love couldn't get any better.. Brace yourself stampers .. We have a Pop up birthday cake.
Oh my goodness This pop up birthday cake is sooo stinkin cute IRL I can hardly stand it. I have a video coming soon on how to make this pop up cake using the Big shot YAHOO!! I Just love it . I used the stamp set called Crazy for cupcakes #111618 for the outside images
for the inside images I used Party hearty stamp set # 111532 . I used The designer paper Sweet Always #112468 for the pop up cake... aaahhh look at the little candle on top Just love this pop up cake . Kinda freaked me out to close the card and squish the cake eeeek But trust me someone had to do it Hee! Hee! and I can tell you It's all good .
It is alot of fun making the cake and seeing it come to life right before your eyes . Gotta love that !! This three tier pop up cake die will be available to everyone starting April 1st along with another fabulous die that makes a 3-D pop up ball
stay tuned for more details April 1st This was my 1st one I made which the finished size card is a 6" X 6" my next one I will try a 5 1/2 " X 5 1/2" size .
The pop up cake is really very simple to make But maybe a little time consuming due to adding all the sticky strip ~ which by the way Sticky strip is a MUST for the pop up .
By the way stampers if you look closely to my cake you will see a sneak peek of what is coming in the new occasions mini ... DO you see it ?
Its a Oval Scallop Punch OMG!! I love this punch ! I love so many of the goodies in the new mini which starts April 1st YAHOO!! It is fabulous !!
Exciting news
Here is Jessie and Dad heading out for her driving test yesterday morning and Guess who has her Driving license ?
Yupper Jessie took her driving test yesterday & passed and here she is with her offical License ( paper copy ) the hard copy license will be sent to her in the mail in about a week ..
This is what that will look like
YAHOO!!
Way to go Jessie :) So very happy Rich was home to enjoy this wonderful moment in our daughters life :)
Thank you for stopping by today :)
Have a Great Wednesday.
Until later ... Happy Stampin!!
Yeah Jessie! Horray for Dad!! Life is good. Your card is too cool; we have got to find more ways to use Tangerine Tango...it is not the easiest color to work with. The cake - looks a little tricky. Thanks for sharing.

Hello Dawn
I frequent your blog daily! Love it! I rarely ever comment but have to say that I am always so touched by some of your stories. I have a daughter named Jesse (different spelling and a Chocolate Lab Riley). I am happy that your husband was home to share in this moment with your daughter. God Bless him and all the other servicemen/women and their families. We can never say THANK YOU enough. God Bless you!
