I call this my recipe for a great day card, made specially for a cook.
For a baker like myself, what makes me happy is when I'm in the
kitchen with all my baking ingredients and I'm baking a delicious cake. Hypothetically, a great day is pretty much getting fed lots of cake. And
hence I created a literal recipe to a great day for my card. Of course
there are other ingredients besides the sugar, flour, eggs, milk and
butter that are needed to bake a cake, but I can't possibly add in every
detail now, can I? ;) As it is, once I got started, it got a bit hard to step on the brakes and hence resulted in a detail overload in the card deco - with a fancy cake stand, apron, mixing bowl and spoon, and my 3-tiered birthday cake.
Today's card is customized for Ah Yen Jie Jie, one of the staff at
Chrys's mum's childcare center who also happens to be the cook. I know that a cook is not necessarily a baker, and vice versa, but hopefully this recipient understands the meaning to the card.
