Damask Cake


This card was inspired by last week's color throwdown and this week's sketch over on CPS.

When I saw those four rectangular background panels in the sketch, I immediately thought of the lovely vintage wallpaper background from Market Street. I love that you can make it as polished or as distressed as you want for your project!

I paired the background up with the lovely Celebrate Cake set. I lightly colored it in with my prismacolor pencils. Then popped up one of the FOUR different toppers from the set on dimensionals.

To finish my card off, I used White Opal liquid pearls to add tiny dots along the base of each layer of cake. Then added a trio of ribbon tabs along the right-hand side to tie in the blue color some more.
