Wedding Cake Card: Fantabulous Cricut "Sweet Shop" Challenge

This week's challenge at Fantabulous Cricut is called "Sweet Shop": create a project incorporating some type of sweet...cake, ice cream, candy, etc.  YUM!!!

My Design Team project is a black & white wedding cake card.  I love black and white for wedding projects.  I used a white card base, with a black swirl lace cardstock for the mat.  I cut three sizes of black/white patterned papers into rectangles and matted them with white cardstock.

I adhered them to the card with foam dots for dimenstion.  I tied a narrow white ribbon around each cake layer and then added a three-layered flower over each knot.  The flowers were cut with George & Basic Shapes at 3/4", 1" and 1 1/4".  The centers are red pearl brads (Eyelet Outlet).  To finish, I stamped the word "love" onto white cardstock using CTMH ink/stamp, inked the edges in red and adhered with foam dots.

Now I just need to find someone that's getting marries to send this to!!!  :)  Hope you'll play along with this week's "Sweet Shop" challenge at FCCB.  You can make any-themed project for any season or holiday, just make sure to incorporate something sweet & yummy on it!

Happy Crafting!
