Friday Mash-Up #22 " What's behind door number ....8 "

 Hi again! This is my second post of the day. I have been behind on .. well, it seems like just about everything, so I am taking time this morning to get caught up. Yesterday I had alot of fun playing along with one of my new favorite challenge blogs, The Friday Mash-up. This week the challenge is to make either a Gate Fold Card, or make a card using Numbers or MASH IT UP and do both!
I, of course, HAD to Mash it up!! My little boy turns 8 later on this month, so it was a perfect time to add the number 8 to my card. Above shows the card closed, the white rectangle with the cake adds as a tab over the gate opening. The picture below shows the card open to a bright dp sunshine.
Details:
Stamps: CDS Birthday Cake Slice & Happy Birthday (single stamps)
Paper: Real Red, Choice SnowWhite, BG Manilla dp
Unknown Echo Park dp
Ink: Momento Tuxedo Black
Copics:BG01, BG05, Y11, Y38, R27, E23, YR04, YR07
Techniques: Gate Fold, Paper Piecing

Christie, such a fabulously bright and cheery card! Great for an 8 year old, who wouldn't love blue icing on a cake!
