Well....the inspiration challenge is always a challenge......the only part of this resulting card that I intended from the start is the green swirling layer......all other ideas died and were put to rest in the garbage......then it evolved....I had this 'cake' I had cut out with my Cricut hanging around....so I played with that....it had swirls on the base so I figured okay...it is related to the green.....and so on....and so on.....but then we get to the best (read it as worst) part......I ran out of my regular adhesive...so was using glue dots(which are dangerous in my hands.)......This cake has suffered from glue dots in my hands....but...ya know what.........it is done....done didded done......lol!!!!!

I love the way it turned out! I like the dots around the scalloped edge.

OMG, Joanne--first I have to get over that hilarious descrip--would love to have been a fly on the wall of the workroom!!! I have to say, that cake sure would go with your earlier icecream--what a delicious little delicacy you whipped up--an epicurean delight (glue dots and all)!!
