I love the simplicity of it and love the embossing.
I figured out that I do NOT know how to emboss with my nesties!!! I CUT through each time instead of embossing! AACK! So, My scalloped circle is CUT OUT and not embossed! I stamped my cake with Stazon Jet Black and colored with Liquid Pearls and colored pencils. I added Fruit Berry Stickles for decoration.
The sentiment is SU! and then I added yellow dew drops.
Simple and plain, but I like it!
What do you think?

Yummy Lesley! I almost cased that card too and thought... hmmm, not sure I know how to do that... I guess you just use the embossing sandwich but I was skeerd! This is very cute and i love it's simplicity! Now.... when I get up there on the top of the bus with you we'll talk dear about these senior moments you are having! Maybe some ginko? Hugs my friend!

Oh, I just saw Purty Bratty Barbie's comment above. Oh what a sweet thing that was for me to see. Girl, you cased this beautifully. I so totally understand your embossing dilemna with those nesties! I cant quite figure it out either. Join my club...the unable to emboss club not the one that has a bunch of old people claiming to have a senior moment!

A really cute card. I love the simplicity of it. The frosting looks real. I know what the problem was with doing the wrong one, you couldn't hear the challenge for all the wind noise.

Junior moment MAYBE, but you're too young to have a senior moment!! LOVE the glimmer of that cake! I bet it looks fabulous IRL too!! I haven't tried just embossing with nesties, but maybe you have to turn the metal thingy over or something. Just a thought.
