Cake decorating meets the Digital Stamp

Today is my daughter-in-laws 30th birthday! For some reason I had a dumb-attack & volunteered to bring the cake. I used to dabble in cake decorating when my son was little. But anymore, I stay as far away from the kitchen as possible. I do occasionally dust it though. :)  I bought a frozen cake at our local grocery store. I added the digital stamp, "Garden Party" by Designed2Delight, printed off a "Happy Birthday" note & punched three flowers for the candles to sit in. I am pretty picky about the food I eat & where it has been, so the 2 square pieces are in SU! Cello Bags. I glued the #30 cutouts to some toothpicks and Voila!

This all has probably been done before, but humor me for a moment & let me believe that I came up with a fab idea. :) thanks for stopping! Hope you are having a great weekend...b.
Just for the heck of it, I am entering my project @ Craft Your Passion Challenge Blog- theme- anything goes
