Birthday Hat

This is the final Birthday card that I recently made using one of my many Hunkydory kits.  I think this image is one of those pictures where different people see different things - when I first looked at it I saw a slice of cake on a plate, my Mum saw a hat on a hat stand, the more I look I think it is a hat!   What do you see at first glance?


The pattern was just on the top of the card stock, so I cut it in half and joined it in the middle before covering the join with a punched border.  I have decoupaged the image and decorated the inside


I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Aud Sentiments Challenge 145 - Anything Goes + A Sentiment
Lemon Shortbread Challenge - Always Anything Goes
Through The Craft Room Door - Always Anything Goes

Thank you for popping in today, your company is much appreciated.

A great card and I like your tip of cutting the card in half to have the pattern on the top and bottom of the card.

I thought at first it was a cake... but whether a hat or cake it is a fabulous card. Love the tip of cutting the card to get the pattern top and bottom (will definitely be doing that now) Have a good weekend xx

Beautiful card Pauline! My first thought was a piece of cake, but your mum has a point, on second thought it could be a hat too.
