Hi Everyone! Today I am waltzing along with Claire, Owner/Designer of Waltzingmouse Stamps, the Waltzingmouse DT & Friends in the Friends of Waltzingmouse Stamps Blog Waltz continuing the 1st Birthday celebration of Waltzingmouse Stamps.
A Birthday celebration isn't complete without a cake!
The Waltzingmouse A Piece of Cake Template is super easy to bake - oops - I mean make! LOL You can make a slice or an entire cake! Not only does this make for a beautiful display but it makes serves as a very useful, unique gift package.
My family will be celebrating Meredith's, (my step-daughter), 13th birthday on Wednesday, May 19th :) I met Meredith when she was only 3 yrs old! Time sure does fly! I am putting a little gift in each slice - how fun is that?! :) 
If you have a special admiration of Spellbinders™ die templates like I do ;) then you will surely love what Claire calls her "Nestie Friendly" stamps! I have said it before & I will say it again, "a match made in my stamping Heaven! :)"
In this close up photo you can see how fabulously the Spellbinders™ Labels Three die template fits flawlessly around the Waltingmouse embossed image.
I have been getting a lot of miles out of my Spellbinders™ Borderabilities die templates. Didn't know what I was missing! You can cut, emboss & stencil with the Borderabilities™ & they don't jam up, eating your paper, they are super light weight & require very little storage space!
For a close up look at just a slice, you can see how fun this template is to embellish with all your favorite papercrafing goodies! :) Green is Meredith's favorite color, I hope she likes her cake! This cake doesn't get my off the hook! Meri is having a pool party on Saturday with 16 of her friends - so I will be baking cupcakes :)
Thanks so much for waltzing by :) See you on the Waltz!

Oh my!! this is fabulous! Love it - I think I need this!!! Thank you Mona for you always inspiring creations!
Yummy! The cake looks so good that I want to eat it! The green tea cake with lots of cream at the Japanese restaurant is my favorite, and yours looks exactly like it! Thanks for all the details, I just bought a cuttlebug last month, I need to look into those die cut at Spellbinders!
Not forgetting, the matching card is as lovely as usual!
Mona, this is the most beautiful cake I've ever seen. It is very precious, and I love all the girly girl decorations. Your matching card is wonderful.
