Sparklly Birthday Cake

Let's all say Happy Birthday to Bee. Why, you ask? Because she's the one giving a gift!!! You can download this digi stamp from her blog. Then use it to make a birthday card and enter her contest. The card she likes best will win one of her digi images! You wanna know how I know? Because I won her last challenge with this card ! (hehe)

I used the Stamps and Smiles sketch to make the card. After I finished, I checked my list of challenges and it also fits If the Shoe Fits, Scrap It (pink and brown), Our Creative Corner (favorite color combo -pink and brown of course), and 2 Red Bananas (wearing stripes). How's that for combining?

I used DCWV Sweet papers and water colored the cake slice. Doesn't it look delicious. It's like the cupcakes I made for Easter, chocolate with cherry icing. Yummmmy! I also glitter all the pink frosting to match the glitter on the dp. I haven't put the sentiment on it yet because I want to get some pink embossing powder. I that would be cute.

I hope you like your cake, Bee!

My Mother has been wanting me to come by a dig up a rose for her that she wanted to give to me. It was a very large bush and I was dreading the job. She called earlier this week and said my nieces boyfriend, Chris, dug it up for us. What a great guy!!! Thanks Chris! It was a huge job but now it's all trimmed down and it won't be too hard to plant. Now I'll have to dig a hole and plant it. That's my job for tomorrow!

If you read my Pink Saturday post, I had pictures of my Mother's flowers. I commented that she has chives in with her tulips. She has a reason for that. They keep the aphids off of the roses. I already have aphids on my roses so I'm definitely giving that a try!

I'll probably be back in a bit. I'm going to go outside and play with Chloe, my doggie, for a while and then get crafty again!
