I'd love your opinions. I have a smash cake I am doing for a girl, and this is her outfit. What's your ideas? All buttercream cake. 

My idea: (just don't know if it will be too much color.)

White top, elmo face in the center. On the sides, I don't remember what it's called, but you pipe a dot and kind of smash it sideways, then another dot, to make a cute pattern. I could do that in stripes of pink and dark pink, or a pattern of pink, dark pink, pink, dark pink.

AI've seen cakes with that technique called petal cakes, but idk really lol. You could do a simple ombré cake with the two shades of pink going to white...something like this where you could keep it messy or clean it up a little.
