Here is a fat-free treat for you. A great little paper cake! I used Tags, Bags, Boxes & More for the cake boxes. I cut them at 7" from a brown cardstock to seem like a chocolate cake. I pieced the boxes together then wrapped them with a white ribbon to make it seem like a vanilla filling. I used part of the box to create the fondant style "frosting." I then cut them out and used the Textile embossing folder. I used a scalloped border punch along the edge for an added effect. I used Mother's Day Boquet to create my flowers. They were cut at 1 1/2," 1 1/4," 1" and 3/4." I curled each piece and sprayed it with some shimmer mist. I also added a pearl into the center of each flower. I also added a butterfly to the center of my cake. I used Everyday Pop-Up Cards to cut the butterfly at 3." I cut two white layers for some stability, then sprayed it with some shimmer mist as well. I then cut out two of the pink layers. I then used some tutti fruity Glimmer Mist to spray the pink layers. I adhered one of the layers to the white part and I adhered only part of the second one and popped the wings up.
I made this cake for the following challenges:
