Fabulous Favorites

This prize drawing is now closed. Thank you to all that left comments and good luck!

Hey everyone! Papertrey Ink is celebrating it's 2 Year Anniversary and we'd like you to join the party. For 14 days, Nichole and the Papertrey girls will be counting down to the big day with some wonderful prizes, challenges and exciting news and product releases. Today we're kicking off the party by giving away free stamp sets. Each designer has chosen their favorite stamp set and YOU might be one of the lucky winners. For my favorite stamp set, I chose Piece of Cake. I was so excited when this stamp set came out. I was a customer back then and can remember fun and fresh this new stamp set was. It was very hard picking out a favorite stamp set, I have SO many. But I think Piece of Cake really wraps up what I love about Papertrey stamps. The designs are fresh, fun and unique....the images are separated out into layers for ease of stamping.....the themes are trendy but still classic enough to use for years and years to come.....the sentiments are like no others.......and the fonts are just as fun as the stamp images. What's NOT to love?

For my beautiful cake card, I stamped the cake images onto Kraft cardstock, using Fresh Snow ink for the frosting and pink craft paint for the cake layers. I topped the cake with some green flowers and a few kinds of glitter....Martha Stewart and some glass glitter from Star Lit Studio. The shimmer factor is amazing! I layered two pieces of cake using pop dots in between. The fun scroll image in the background is in the Piece of Cake set too, another wonderful supporting image. Pink sequins were added to the scroll loops. I used a Cuttlebug folder for the background cream color and a Spellbinders Label Die for the top layer.

I used the two stamps that are stamped separately to create the two colored sentiment. I love that about this set..different fonts in different sizes to really create a unique look and color combination. The pretty ribbon is Sweet Blush Swiss Dot, tied up with a square button. This card could easily be used for a birthday card but is generic enough in nature that you could add a wedding or congratulations sentiment. Or maybe someone just likes cake...like me.

Sooooo, whaddya think? Would like to have a shot at winning this beauty of a set? Wouldn't that just frost your cake? To enter the contest, leave a comment on MY blog, telling me what your favorite Papertrey set is and why. The contest ends at 12am EST on February 2nd and winners will be selected shortly after. Nichole will list the prize winners on her blog HERE and also in the new Anniversary Celebration forum at the Papertrey site. Good luck.....and EAT CAKE!!
