Birthday Tags by Ellen Haxelmans

Birthdays are for Cake & Cats!

Love Birthdays? Love Cake? Love Cats? Today's projects by Ellen have all three of these favorites! She created the these charming tags using images from our new Newton Loves Cake stamp set! She stamped the images of that mischievous kitty with his cake and trimmed them out using the coordinating Newton Loves Cake Die Set. Then she colored the cakes with lovely shades of purple and, of course, chocolate frosting!

I love the details she added like the gloss on the frosting the extra white polka dots on the cupcake wrapper!

Have you ever wondered how to add stripes to your cats? She's included a tip on how she does it (see photo above). You just draw lines, each getting a bit shorter to form a little triangle! How easy is that? And it adds a special bit of detail too! Thanks, Ellen, for sharing this tip!
