A friends daughters 18th

I was asked to make a card for a friends daughters birthday.
I saw a pic of the cake she is getting, and based the card on the cake.
 
The cake is fushia and black in colour...with a shoe on the top.
This shoe actually comes from a piece of wrapping paper!
I backed it on card to give it some strength.
The fushia papers are form pink petticoat - and are "bubblegum" colour.
The flowers are dovecraft blooms.
I generated the sentiment straight onto the card, with my pc.
A few gems and MS butterflies finished the card off.
My friend almost cried (with joy!) when she saw the card -
 she was so impressed I had remembered what
the cake looked like, and made this in the same colours.
Phew!

The bold colours and high contrast with the colours make this card a stunner. I really like the clean lines of the design which showcase that shoe beautifully. I'm sure your friend was delighted as this card is a keepsake for her daughter. Thanks for joining our Girly-Girl Challenge at Craft Your Passion this week. I hope we see you again very soon.
