In my last post I promised that I would start sharing the cards that I made while I was at The Stamping in the Mountains Retreat. So if “Cake is the Answer” like the title of my post today says……
I just love this! Well, I love cake too – chocolate cupcakes with white icing is my favorite. Now that you’ve seen a close up of the inside of the card….you’d probably like to see the outside too!
This is the stamp set that I used – Piece of Cake which is in the 2019 Occasions catalog.
And I used the How Sweet It is Designer Series Paper because I love the bright colors and fun designs.
You can make cake cards for every occasion – birthdays, weddings, celebrations, cakes for kids and cakes for adults….it’s just a good all around set. And once you stamp and color your cakes, this Cake Builder Punch will punch it out for you in a flash. This is also in the 2019 Occasions catalog. This punch is currently on back-order, but it should be available again in the beginning of April….and then you can purchase the stamp set and the punch as a bundle and save 10%!
I could have stamped the candles right onto the oval, but I opted to just stamp them on a scrap piece of cardstock and do a little fussy cutting before I put them on the top of the cake.
If you’d like to make this card, these are the supplies you’ll need:
- Piece of Cake Stamp Set
- Whisper White Thick Cardstock – Cut 5 ½” x 8 ½”; Scored at 4 ¼”
- Gorgeous Grape Cardstock – Cut 5 ¼” x 4”
- How Sweet It Is Designer Series Paper – Cut 5” x 3 ¾”
- Outside Banner: Whisper White Cardstock- Cut ½” x 3”
- Gorgeous Grape Cardstock – Cut ⅝” x 3 ⅛”
- Inside Banner: Whisper White Cardstock – Cut ½” x 3 ⅞”
- Gorgeous Grape Cardstock – Cut ⅝” x 4”
- Whisper White Cardstock – Cut 5 ¼” x 4” (for inside)
- Ovals – Scraps of Whisper White & Gorgeous Grape
- Ink: Gorgeous Grape and Tuxedo Black Memento
- Stampin’ Blends: Highland Heather, Lovely Lipstick, Pool Party Dark, Bermuda Bay Light, Daffodil Delight
- Cake Builder Punch
- Layering Ovals Framelit Dies

There is no decorating on the inside this time, but sometimes I like to add a layer of Whisper White Cardstock on the inside, just to give it a little extra finishing touch.
Happy Stamping!
