Shabby Chic ~ English Garden Diaper Cake

English Garden Diaper cake - sideview, originally uploaded by ChicGiftsByCassieLLC.

This diaper cake is possibly my favorite one yet. I created it in on a rainy summer afternoon. As soon as the rain stopped, I scrambled outside to get some natural light to capture the true beauty of this diaper cake. There's so much I love about it; the scalloped border on the bottom tier, the vivid classic colors & most of all..the shabby chic design. I hope this one finds a good home or I may just have to keep it!
