Let them eat Lots of Cake

Today for Retro Cafe ARt I decided to go red! I know it looks like a Valentines Day card but that really wasn't my intension. LOL. I'm sending it off to a new friend as a random act of kindness. I won't sign it inside so she can use it or keep it. It's up to her!

Well, to make this I started with fussy cutting the image of Marie from the Valentine Marie by Cassandra VanCuren sheet and the pretty cake from the Large Rosey Cakes by Marie Van Curen sheet. I layered Marie on a heart shaped paper doily that I kissed with cream paint. The cake was layered  on the packaging of some embellishments. Sometimes  I find that  the packaging of our supplies can be used in our projects too. Accents include ribbon roses, some red gimp, Gold and red Stickles, a red bow and a glittered fleur de isle on her crown. And yes I do know that Marie never said let them eat cake! Did you?

Hope you will get to eat lots of delicious cake this week.
artfully yours, gerri
