Isn't this cake die FAB!! I love the quirkiness of it and I know that I am going to use it LOTS!!! :-)  I coloured with Copic Markers and for the starry confetti background I used a Falling Stars Stencil, Worn Lipstick, Squeezed Lemonade and Spiced Marmalade distress Oxide Inks. 


and I used the leftover scrap of paper to coordinate the envelope, sometimes its just the  little touches that make all the difference ;-)
