"The Two Cakes" is a story similar to Perralt's "Diamonds and Toads". There are two girls, one good and the other mean, who both met a fairy. The fairy asks each of them for a piece of cake and each girl gives or refuses due to her nature. The fairy gives them each a gift, for the good girl- pearls and garnets fall from her hair when she brushes it, roses from her lips when she talks, and lilies follow her when she walks and for the mean girl- toads from her lips and thistles when she walks.
My story I decided to set in Africa. The "Diamonds and Toads"story has been adapted in African retellings before like "The Talking Eggs" and "Mufaro's Beautiful Daughters".
This is just a color comp... but I really like it. I hope the final comes out like this. ^.^
