Baby shower buttons

So struggled with this cake. The client brought me a baby shower invitation with an earth tone barnyard scene. I?m thinking this will be fun until she tells me she hates farm animals. She wants stripes and polka dots in earth tones with a pregnant lady on top. Well the cake looked liked faded do-do with those colors in stripes and polka dots. I had made some button molds from a tin of vintage buttons I got at a yard sell and convinced her to go that direction. I think it gave the cake moretexture and interest but I seriously disliked these colors.
