Cake in Pink


"Soft kitty, warm kitty, little ball of fur..." Little kitty with a big birthday cake!

This card features Newton's Nook, resit embossing with Perfect Pearls watercolour, dry embossing, and Perfect Pearls faux embossing. Dotty!

Putting It Together

From some of the cards I have made, this one included, you would never guess that Pink is actually one of my least favourite colours. *laugh*


I embossed the stamp with a light pink on white.


I used the Big Shot and embossed a pink metallic panel and die cut the image panel. Love those scallops.


For the bottom panel, I used a stencil to apply VersaMark.


I then brushed Perfect Pearls over the VersaMark for a faux embossing. It's not dimensional, but it is very sparkly.


I used a Distress ink pad to ink the edges of the panels.


I adhered the two dotty panels to the card base after stamping the front sentiment on the faux embossing.


I originally intended to jut leave the image as an embossed line art, but I decided to give it sparkle and painted it with Perfect Pearls. The sparkle is amazing in person.


I used foam mounting tape under the image panel to give the card some additional dimension.


Inside I stamped the scroll-y happy "happy birthday" and added a hat. I used Perfect Pearls to add a touch of colour and sparkle to the hat.
