Flowers and Candles
The birthday cake image is from another stamp I saw a long time ago in a craft book, roughly imitated by hand on plain white paper with a black lineart pen, and coloured in with deep red felt-tips before being cut out.
If you noticed, the front of the card is a layered rectangle of bright pink speckled cardstock attached to another pale pink card on the left side which forms the back of the card. This is a pretty good way to use oddly-sized pieces of leftover cardstock that aren't really big enough to be made a card by themselves. I then layered cream cardstock and bright pink corrugated paper and stiff kraft paper by rotation to create interest, before topping it all off with the cake image. The embellishments are punch-outs of flowers and butterflies.
Hope you liked it! :)
