Simply spread the frosting (store bought of course) with a knife.......and take some pretty sprinkles and shake them on top of the frosting. (What did you expect? I told you I don't bake! )
OK, enough with the baking tips for today! Let's get to my card shall we? I used the Girlfriend's Crafty Secret's Creative Scraps for the main image. I found these cute birthday hats at Michaels, they are from K & Company. I wanted to create the look of frosting around the image, so I took texture paste and ran it along the edge with my finger. Then I took my "sprinkles" (beads) and lightly shook them onto my frosting. : )
I actually might have to bake this weekend......it is my hubby's 41st birthday. If I decide to bake (And I use that term loosely.....) I will post a picture!!! You can check out my cake decorating skills.......yea right.
Have a great weekend everyone! And as always, I appreciate you stopping by!

Love your card and especially what you did with the "frosting" and "sprinkles"... just fabulous!
Oh my word, when I first opened up your blog and saw you talking about cake and frosting, and saw the snippet of the picture...well, I thought you put real frosting on your card! LOL!
Great idea to use the paste and sprinkles. It really looks real!
...I'm a frosting-out-of-the-jar kinda girl myself. ;)
Such a cool card Michele and I have to say I love the way you do icing (frosting) - sounds like the sort of thing I would do!!! :)
