Birthday cake card

I was working on a birthday card that featured a cake. I decided to paper piece the cake out of coordinating shades of purple and emboss each layer with a different folder for contrast. The 'icing' seperators are cut out of a third shade of purple with my Fiskars 'sunflower' deco edge scissors. The sticker, ribbon and patterned paper were all from the Target Dollar Spot in a birthday kit I picked up ages ago. It was most certainly a neglected piece of my stash. The stamp set however is brand spankin new. It's was clearanced out at JoAnns for 99cents and came with an entire sheet of birthday images and sentiments!!!!!! WHOO HOO!
