Want more? The Tiffany & Co. Explosion Cake in a Box!

Hey there!  I know, I know, enough about the Tiffany & Co. and those darn WHITE SATIN RIBBONS!!!!  But, you know what?  I just had too!  I can't get that trademark blue outta my mind . . . I realized that I created the Prince Ian card for the TGF CHA Relay Challenge in that color!  So not planned!!!

Since the wedding is on Saturday, I couldn't wait any longer to make a card/gift for my gf.  There's much to do for the wedding - - rehearsal, dinner, manicure, pedicure, check into the hotel, pick-up the dresses, and then the actual wedding.  Phew, thinking about it makes me exhausted! 

Here's what I created for my gf and her husband-to-be, an Explosion Cake In A Box. 

Yup, you guessed it . . . A LOT OF WHITE SATIN RIBBON/BOWS & THE TRADEMARK BLUE!  Not the exact blue, but pretty close to it.  I used a Currency silver CS and embossed the white CS with my embossing folder.  I handmade the paper flowers and used my Sizzix 3D Three Tier Cake Diecut.   I tried to stamp the sentiment onto the vellum, but it came out horrible so I ended up printing the sentiment off the computer.   I also made a pocket behind the cake to insert a gift card or to place the moolah in.

Here's a closer look at the stamped image of the bride & groom.  I got this stamp a long time ago by Juju's Tiny Treasures.  I didn't want my message to the bride & groom to be on the base of the Explosion Box so I inserted my message of well wishes on the inside of the lid/cover.  I hope she likes it!  :)
