Starting off with today's Momenta Monday project, featuring all Momenta paper goodness and a few other assorted embellies!
That Cake
So I have a favorite cake that comes from bakery in Fort Worth called The Swiss Pastry (okay, let me fact check that real quick....still checking....) Correction: Swiss Pastry Shop. If you are ever in Fort Worth or a Fort Worthean who has never checked out this landmark, I urge you to make a stop. They are famous for their Black Forest Cake, which really isn't anything like a traditional Black Forest Cake and I'm totally, TOTALLY okay with that.
And I say all that to say this...a layout honoring my favorite cake was bound to happen, as I really, really, REALLY like cake, particularly of the birthday persuasion.

| I'm going through a machine stitching phase again, so lots of sewing on this page. I used a zig zag stitch around most of the individual paper layers and left the ends of my thread intact for a kind of shabby chic look. |
 |
| I'm normally not a fan of putting buttons on a layout without at least adding some sort of twine or thread, but I thought these fit and looked pretty cute as is. I added some strips of washi tape at a couple of points on the layout to help ground the other elements. |
 |
| I really like how the "Cake" epoxy sticker went so well with the foil corrugated red alphas here. |
 |
| This journaling card from Cosmo Cricket really complimented the color scheme of the overall layout and gave me the perfect spot to add a few thoughts. |
 |
| Some baker's twine tied at the bottom of the page finished the whole thing off. |
I'm really pretty pleased with how this whole page came together and really enjoyed breaking into my Momenta supplies!
The Momenta D-Lite team now has a board on Pinterest, so please come check it out!
