Going bananas

Well, I didn't get any guesses on what those cute little flowers are made out of, but you are sure to recognize it when I tell you. You know all of those envelopes that bills arrive in at your home? Did you ever check out the inside of the envelopes? These flowers are punched out of those envelopes using the 5 Petal Punch!! Aren't they fun?!? Sometimes those envelope insides are even different colors, like blue, red and green, and there are so many different patterns, too. Just think of what you can do with what we usually throw away.... For this card, I also used the stamp set called Celebrate Everything and heat embossed it with White Embossing Powder. I added Bold Brights (red) buttons stuck on with Mini Glue Dots to give just a little splash of color!


These are a couple more cakes made by my daughter Emily. She is really enjoying this cake decorating thing. Both of these cakes are banana flavored, one with nuts and one without. Then she did bananas on one and a camera on the other out of icing. The first was a practice cake to see what the banana cake recipe tasted like, then the second was for a friend for his birthday. She charges a very reasonable price for cakes and can be quite creative. Let me know if you are interested in getting a cake done by Emily! :0)
