1. Hmmm....a window.....
2. Okay, since I am still obsessing over these soft acrylic boxes that you can build a card in, I chose to go that route this morning. Go Figure! I have been thinking hard about the things that you look through a window at and this works!
3. This big old quy has quite the attitude and has always taken great pride in being a prize winning Master Chef. He is highly sought after for special birthdays and weddings! He knows that people are in awe of him while he is baking his master pieces because they gawk at him through his window like they do monkeys at the zoo!
4. He loves it! Except sometimes he gets a little embarrassed when he is stuffing his mouth with cake and someone walks up but oh well, have you ever seen a skinny chef who was really any good?
5. He eats more cake than he bakes!

What a fun card! It sure is like looking through the window and checkin' that guy out. I love his polka-dotted chefs coat. I have never seen that done before. Good idea! The balloons and cake are just adorable. Sweet background too! It is all just so adorable. I know you spent alot of time on this and I am sure you had some giggles doing it. TFS his awesome story!
ps...I have never wanted this set before...now I have to have it!

Yeah, inquiring minds want to know how you do it. How are you inspired? How do you then apply it to your craft? How do you come up with such funny stories? How do you do it all so fast? Inquiring minds want to know!
Totally adorable, Cindy! I love this window card of the bakery shop, and I like how you did your balloons!
Amazing! Love the colors and all the details that you put into this! Cuttled embossed balloons to the bradded ribbon to the paper piercing of the cook. Wow! Incorporating the box is creative and goes so well with this. Are you submitting this to be published anywhere? Quite a unique item!
