Whoa, Jami, what a fabulous place this was to visit. Visit was all I could do given the price tag for personalized door-to-door cake delivery! Plus, after paying more than $1000 for a cake, I'd have to e almost dead before I could even think about eating one. It would have to be my ‘good bye’ gift to myself
Although the gallery was chocked full of gorgeous cakes, I couldnÂ’t quite figure out to what to do with any of those fairly modernistic photos .
I really tried to think outside my comfort level today by going with pink, mint and blue. Yikes, 3 colors you've never seen in my gallery, and colors you're not likely see again.
Here's where my inspiration came from: Page ~ recent cakes entitled "Down the Rabbit Hole".
Thanks for looking!

Oh this is deliciously pastel and fresh and lovely! The pearl flowers are spot on perfect and your stitching is fantastic...and straight, hee! I can only aspire to straight stitches! Love love all the patterns of the papers!

Well, my dearest Anne, I suppose this is out of your box - but you know I just love it!! I just love the colours and your papers!! The image is just delightful - and when I see sewing on card - I am immediately in awe of the card - and this is no exception!!! Love the framing of your image with the nesties - gorgeous!!! Stay out of your box girl - you'll soon be one of the dirty dozen at this rate!!
Holy cow, Woman, what are you talking about - using technical terms like 'comfort level'!??!? This is awesome, love the pastel colors and layout, love the straight (which I canNOT do) stitching. Did you finish your Christmas sewing?

Kudos for going outside your comfort zone, Anne! It worked, it worked! This is a lovely card and I love your color combo. There is so much going on here! Your various dps work so beautifully together and that stitching is so perfect. Love that flourish peeking out under your pretty flowers. Wowsa, this is wonderful. tfs
