Birthday Cake Layout

February 15, 2015

     Welcome to my non-traditional birthday layout for the new challenge at Lasting Memories.  We had a sketch to follow this time, but also needed to use food on the project.
     The photo I chose to go with is the cake my SIL made for my DH’s 32nd birthday.  It was the first year we had Easter at our home and his birthday was the same weekend so she made his cake for dessert.  
    Since this was for an adult I found many of my birthday papers too juvenile.  I also didn’t want anything overly clean since the cake was about dirt bikes…out came my modeling paste and Tim Holtz Dot Fade stencil.  I mixed my modeling paste with some glimmer mist until I achieved a green that matched the papers I was using.  The dot fade stencil almost gives the impression of a dirt bike tire track running down the side of my page.
   The papers I choose were from Bella Blvd’s Max collection.  My husband also plays guitar and drums so beyond the fact that the orange paper matched well it incorporated another one of his favorite things.  The grey paper was also chosen for it’s tire like quality.  I kept the embellishments simple with some white sequins, white ink drops and matching stickles.  A man page can definitely have stickler, IMHO, if they are the right color.
   So – what do you think…did it turn out manly enough?  Will you being joining our sketch and food challenge?  Until next time…Keep scrapping!
