Cake Crazy for Him

Stampin' Up! Cake Crazy stamp set, Stampin' Studio

I’ve seen many adorable cards made with the Cake Crazy stamp set shown on page 7 of the Occasions Catalog.  But I am so in love with the neutral colors in this one.  I know many times we struggle with masculine looking cards, but I think this is simple, stunning, and very masculine looking.  One of my favorite things about this stamp set is that you are the cake decorator.
