This was such a fun card to make! I used the Cake Decorating 101 by Flourishes and made a hat on a stand -- can you see it? The cake is the top of the hat, the plate is the brim and the pedestal for the plate is the hat stand -- how fun!!! And I thought it was fun to decorate cakes -- now I can decorate hats as well!!! With Love is from Flourished Words. All Flourished products can be seen at www.Flourishes.org.
The hat is paper pieced and all the DP is from the new Prints Designer Paper from SU, and my flower and pearls are from SU's new Pretties Kit -- just love all the *pretties* in that kit! This card is 5.5" square.

Oh my word, Sharon!!! You are a creative genius!!! This is gorgeous and clever at the same time. Flourishes should give you a bonus for coming up with this for their cake stamps. I have a hat-crazy friend, and I am so saving this in my favorites! Soft Sky is stunning with black. TFS. Linda
