Cake or Death?

I know - weird title for a blog post.  I'll get to the reason in a minute...  First, here's the card I made for one of my daughters for her birthday:

Stamps used were Stampingbella's Petunia Thinks She's a Prezzie and The Project Bin Born Yesterday.   I colored the sweet image with my Spectrum Noir markers.  I used my WRMK Corner Chomper to round the corners of the mats and a Marvy Uchida dimple corner punch on the main panel.  The scalloped border is a Fiskars punch.  Papers are S.E.I. Happy Day patterned papers,  Stampin'Up! Watermelon Wonder cardstock, and Recollections Cool Waters and white cardstocks.  I used Stampin'Up!'s Petals-a-plenty embossing folder on the white background panel.  I didn't think of the flower brads until after the card was already put together, so I snipped the "legs" off of them and stuck them on with glue dots.

If you have seen Eddie Izzard's Dress to Kill video, then the inside of the card (and the title of this post) make sense, otherwise, I've included the pertinent clip below for your viewing pleasure:

Same papers as listed above, but this stamp is from The Project Bin's Bazinga! set.  The daughter that this is for is a very big Eddie Izzard fan, so...

Here's the video clip (it's part of a series and the next one will autoplay, so be aware of that and just click the pause button if you don't want to see the others):

And a Lego version, just for fun...

Fun extra tidbit:  The design of this card was from this week's sketch challenge on Splitcoast, and has been listed several times in the "Favorites" thread for this week...

And that's it for now!  Thanks for stopping by, and have a FABULOUS week!
