Extra Cake Layers

If you're a chocolate fan like me you're going to like this . . . I'm going to show you how to add an extra layer to this cake.  Its literally a "Piece of Cake". Look close at the background - the stamp has only 2 layers.  My cake as 3 layers. Yum!

The trick to getting the 3rd layer is to stamp the cake normally so you get your top 2 layers. Then put a post-it over what you just stamped and stamp again repositioning the stamp to add the extra layer.  A picture is worth a 1000 words, see . . . piece of cake, right?

Is that yummy icing making you drool?  Use your Fine Tip Glue pen after coloring it to get the shine.

The background is easy to make. The stamp set comes with 4 different cake images. Mount them all on a single block and stamp 4 at a time. Quick and easy!

The Piece of Cake stamp set has a coordinating punch, with a wonderful cake stand. You can see it used as intended on these cards.  But for this project I just wanted a cake plate instead of a stand.

Piece of Cake with Marbled Background

I'm thinking spring with the gorgeous flowers on this cake.


Are you someone who likes to color?  The Piece of Cake stamp set is a lot of fun to play with because of the variety of decorations on the different cakes.

Which of these cakes do you think looks the most fun to play with? I confess to really having fun with this set which is why if you scroll back thru previous posts you'll see lots of cards made with the Piece of Cake stamp set. I like to color and I also like that there is a matching punch.




Are your fingers itching to get a hold of your markers and colored pencils? I hope you've been inspired to head to the craft room and play.  And if you need any craft supplies I hope I've inspired you to browse the Stampin'UP! Product Line. Your business is appreciated.

Piece of Cake with Lollipops

#SimpleStamping

Birthday Card made with Stampin'UP!'s Piece of Cake Stamp set and Cake Builder Punch and decorated with paper from the Garden Impressions pack
This fun card is really easy to make.  Both the cake and the lollipop images are from the Piece of Cake stamp set and the cake plate is from the coordinating Cake Builder Punch.

Its all about the layers! 

Concept-wise this card is very easy . . . its the layers that add interest and make it look more complicated than it really is.

Do you get as excited as I do 
when I find a way to use up scraps? 
The cake was stamped on scrap paper, punched out, and colored with markers.

The lollipops were stamped directly on the white and the cake and cake plate were glued below them.

Layering adds dimension
. . . and Dimensionals add layers

An optional way you can get extra depth is by using foam Dimensionals to raise the piece with the circle off the background. (see product links below)

Every card needs a little sparkle and glitz

For this card I punched the cake plate from silver foil paper  I love the new Cake Builder Punch. I can't imagine trying to cut that cake plate and get the sides symmetrical and even.

Coordination is Key

This Designer paper strip from the Garden impressions Paper pack was perfect.  The image on the paper coordinated perfectly with the image on the cake.  And I used matching color markers to color in the lollipops and cake frosting.

The right tools make this a quick and easy project. I hope I've inspired you to go play. I'm happy to answer questions about this or any other project. My email is in the header at the top of the page.
