Riley and Company - Birthday Celebrations!

Hi friends!
There's a new Riley and Company Challenge today and this week,
I'm the hostess!
Since March is a popular month for birthdays,
I thought that would be a fun, easy challenge this go 'round ~
create a birthday card using Riley or Sophie!
 
For my card today, I created what I call a "Surprise Inside" card ♥
I used the clear stamp set called
On the front of my card, I stamped the sentiment "You take the Cake"
(comes in the stamp set!)
and on the inside .............
 

Surprise!
After stamping Riley, I paper pieced the cake and gave it a quick
color over the ribbons and confetti.
 

 
When the card is open, it pops up and the image is revealed.
However, this card folds completely flat into an A2 size card!
 
 
 

 
Please be sure to stop by and see what the DT has created today
to celebrate birthdays!
If you upload your card to a gallery, please use the
keyword Riley0614 and link up your cards to the Challenge Blog.
 
Big hugs, Bigger Blessings!
