Anyways.... I was telling Cindy and Lee that I had to make a 40th birthday card to take to work tomorrow. The birthday cake has been ordered from Charly's Bakery in Cape Town and as I just love their Topsy Turvy cakes (think, the Mad Hatter's cake in Alice in Wonderland), I thought I'd make a card with a similar cake. Now, as I don't have a topsy turvy cake stamp, I drew one and cut out the different layers from left over cardstock and this is what it looks like ...
Now that I've experimented with this one, I plan to sketch a few more using brighter, bolder colours for the different tiers. Should be fun, don't you think ?
Here's a pic of the inside, sorry it is all blurrish!
And here's a very simple sketch version of the cake, which I drew before making the card... Think I'll sit down and make a few template variations later.
Here's Charly's Bakery
If you're popping by, I'd love to know what you think. Hope you're having fun crafting, hugs Sharon x

WOW....thats awesomely beautiful, of course the recipient will love it, unless she has the taste of an onion, I was gonna say unless she's blind and can't see it but even a blind person could feel how beautiful this is and would love this card.
HUGS I love it
Cindy :)
