I'm not ecstatic about this card. This stamp set is very whimsical, and the card is not. Well...I started off inking up the acrylic stamp with bright markers. I wanted to do each layer of the cake in a different bright color. Well, the ink wouldn't stick to the acrylic! It was then I realized I always use black ink on acrylic, and then color in with Copic markers or watercolor. But, since this stamp is block style...I couldn't do that. I really do like rubber stamps better...but I still buy acrylic if the image is cute. So, since my plan wasn't working, I decided to emboss. And this is the only embossing powder I had that was "birthday-ish". So, that is how this card came to be.

I love the "glitz" and the scallop at the bottom!
