Now on to my project....

This image was the first thing that came to mind when I signed up to do this hop! I wanted to make this card for my sister Vanessa's wedding. She got married last August and of course I put it off until the last minute, she lives a different state and I wasn't going to be able to make it to the wedding so I figure I would just get the card mailed later... She came to town for a reception in September and I swore I was going to get it done then but it didn't happen... I was also going to make an Awesome cake for their reception! It was going to be a very large cake and I was going to use the Cricut Cake to make a barn and lots of animals since they live on a farm. Well baking the cakes took WAY MORE TIME then I thought it would, so I spend an entire 2 days baking. Then I had to start frosting everything which TOOK FOREVER!!!  I was SO disappointed that I wasn't getting anything done like I wanted it to be. We were a little late to the reception (for me that is normal ;) ) So I ended up with 3 very large cakes frosted in white...Nothing else got finished so of course I was in tears because I was so mad at myself for everything taking so long. So I asked them to just cut up the cake in the kitchen and just put it out on the tables... Everyone LOVED the cake, but I was still feeling really bad about it and still do. Then everyone that came up to compliment me on how delicious it was got the story of what it was supposed to look like!!! GRRR....It still makes me mad just writing about it...
So since I never had time to finish the card because of the cake. I decided I would make her card for this hop that way I could at least say I finished that!!!

Sorry Vanessa and JR , maybe on one of your anniversaries I can make the cake I had all planned out in my head!!! Thank goodness you had a real reception after your wedding in August so at least you had a cake to cut together then!

Sorry for all the rambling.... Here is the card I created! Which I will get in the mail this week, I promise!!!

Supplies:
White, black, blue, yellow, pink, peach and brown cardstock
Diamond Stickles (of course!)
Martha Stewart border punch
Disney-Happily Ever After cartridge
