Birthday card for Knud

A colleague of mine ordered a card for her brothers 50th birthday. Knud likes biking, so I found an old picture on Google that I printed and used as the focal point on the card.

I used papers and stickers from Kaisercrafts "Barber Shoppe" collection and the chipboard cogs are also from Kaisercraft. I also used some black cardstock. I have used dies from Spellbinders 6x6 Matting basics and Oval Ironwork, and for the numbers I have used a die from Marianne Design. The flowers are from WOC. The cogs are embossed with silver embossing powder.

Mortens 40th birthday card and cake

My colleague Morten turned 40 just before Easter so we all chipped in to buy him a present and I made the card to go with it:

I have used papers from Maja Designs "Denim & Friends" collection, and the picture I found on Google. I have used dies from Spellbinders - Matting Basics 6x6, Marianne Design - Numbers, Tattered Lace - Happy Birthday and Crealies - Stars. The halfpearls are from my stash.

Since I also make cakes from time to time Morten had booked me to make a cake for his colleagues, so for once I actually got to taste the finished cake :-). Morten designed the graphics for the cake, so it was pretty easy for me. He was not happy about turning 40 - it made him feel old - hence the wheel chair.

The cake consists of 3 layers of chocolate cake, 1 layer of raspberrymousse and one layer of chocolatemousse. The cake is covered with Baileys butterfrosting before covered with homemade fondant.
