Stars & Stamps MWT & Happy St Patrick's Day!

The Stars & Stamps mid-week throwdown this week is to use scallops. Paula generously donated a free digi for you to use to make cards for OWH, so go check it out and play along! I know you all have scallops of some sort!
For my card I used a Sweet 'n Sassy Cocoa digi image, printing and coloring with Copics. The DP is all by Basic Grey. I created the vertical scalloped panel by punching with the SU scalloped border on both sides of a strip of DP and adding mini star brads. Sentiment is by Inkadinkado and I used the word window and fancy label punches to frame it. The camera didn't pick it up, but I used glossy accents all over the frosting and filling on the cake :)
Thanks for stopping by and I wish everyone a happy St. Patrick's day! I can't believe I didn't remember to make a green card for today so I'm posting this in green! It's shameful I know.........
I know.

  5. great birthday card - love that DP (maybe I'll find a piece in your scrap bin someday)! Don't know if you intended it or not, but I see the number 10 (scalloped panel and Cocoa's circled image).

  6. I'm just as bad, using the dog to celebrate for me! LOL! I was a good girl and baked cupcakes with shamrocks for work yesterday. I took all but 4 so I would not eat them. Hubby claimed the 4. This chocolate cake looks mighty yummy though! You colored it perfectly!
