Favor "FAKE CAKE" for Showers..We added flowers




We made this favor cake today from $12.00 in dollar tree supplies. We bought the silver tray, 4 packages of ribbon, 3 packages of 12 favor boxes. THen I bought two bouquets of white roses, and two of baby's breath.

I cut the band on the cricut, out of 12x24 inch paper. We cut a ring out of card board with slits in it, put it in the middle of the tray, then we put each of the favor box handles through.


The bottom layer of the "cake" is probably 15 inches. I think we used 18-20 boxes..I'll count later. The top layer was formed in a 8 inch cake pan until we put the paper band around it. We cut an 8 inche circle on the cricut that we put under the 8 inche layer.

 I put the ribbon spools in the middle and glued them together to make a pillar to sit the 8 inch layer on it. We added some frilly bows, and the heart border around the bands.

We might add some flowers to add some color.

We still need to take it apart and put something INSIDE the favor boxes later. The wedding is not until October.

This is a similar idea to diaper cakes but made with favor boxes.

Here is a web site that sells custom favor cakes made to order.

Natal: some sick joke?


I usually keep away from forums where console wars are a daily matter, but the plans for Natal seem like total bullshit to me
Marc Whitten, general manager of Xbox 360, recently expressed similar sentiments in an interview with Fast Company.

"But Natal isn't just about gaming...It's about all living room experiences. Imagine a sporting event. Natal could know which team you're for because it sees your jersey, or knows you thought a bad call was made when you yell 'boo.' It learns about you and gets smarter to create a more tailored entertainment experience."

LOTV Challenge 52

This is my last week as GDT member at the LOTV Challenge.  I have so enjoyed doing this.  The theme this week is Here Comes Summer.  I have chosen to do a pretty summer wedding and have used one of the LOTV stamps and the Martha Stewart stamp and puch flower punch.

Exploding Clown Box


I had fun making this box today. Files coming soon. You could put photos on al the flaps and make it as a gift. Or deliver a gift card in style, by putting it in this cute box.


This box takes 4 cuts. I used two pairs of two-sided card stock. Then by switching the colors you can have lots of contrasting pieces, that you can use to embellish your box. 
The svg file for this clown box will be for sale on my blog for $3.00. You need to buy a 1 inch wooden bead for the head and a pompom for the nose(or cut one out of paper). I drew on the face with some sharpie markers.

Outer layer: fold 4 flaps towards the middle. Add Party cut to the rectangle background and put on front of box. Add clown shoes.  Use raised dots to attach various trims to side of box as desired.

Lid: fold to make lid and glue. Make present by glueing bow onto front. FOr 3-d effect, use raised dot to attach to second present layer. Glue arms on the side of the box lid, so that the hands can hold the present. Attach present to the clowns arms. Fan fold the neck "ruffle" , glue ends together and flatten. I glued it to a scrap of paper to keep it flat.
 Attach "rosette" or ruffle to top of box lid. Attach clown head. Attach nose to clown head. Make hat by folding circle into a cone shape. Attach hat to bead clown head.

Middle layer: fold 4 flaps towards middle. Attach with glue to outer layer middle square.

Inner Layer: fold 4 flaps towards middle. Attach with glue to middle layer.

Trim with various hearts, stars and squares.
