Just thought i would post a couple of my latest cakes!

here they are,...

this one was a brushed embroidery cake i did for my moms work!
and this big thing was for Taylors Hannah Montana 5th Birthday!
Happy Birthday Taylor!

Friday night Tara and i decided to get together for a little cake decorating! As i stated in an earlier post i was not able to finish my Wilton Course 2 classes because of being sick so i asked Tara to teach me what i missed! We had so much fun but boy did i miss a lot! We were up til almost midnight basket weaving and making flowers! Thank you so much Tara for all you help! You were the best teacher ever! Here's the finished project!

Last month Tara and I took a gum paste flower class. I think we both decided that gum paste flowers may not be fore us but it was a lot of fun! The flowers just take a lot of time and money to make, so if u want one of theses from us you better be willing to pay!!! haha

After being sick for a few weeks and even making two trips to the hospital with a short stay i had gotten out of cake decorating. Tara had been doing so well and i have to admit i was a little jealous about how good her cakes were looking! They were SO good and i wanted back in it! I decided to sign up for the next class with Tara which started two weeks ago! we are having a blast as always!

I was given the chance to make Morgans Smiths 21st birthday cake and i was so excited! That is until she told me she wanted black and hot pink! Black really? Black is really hard to make so i just decided to cheat and buy black fondant from the store! The cake turned out so cute and everyone loved it! One girl even asked me for my card! I don't think I'm quite ready to give out my card but hopefully soon! If anyone is interested let me know!! here's the cake,..

i actually made the zebra print,..black and white fondant!
Happy Birthday Morgan! Hope your Birthday was the best it could be!

Tara Mandy and I finished up cake class tonight feeling ready to,...well take another class. It was so much fun but i do believe we have a lot more to learn! I'm ready to sign up for 2 and 3 and soooo ready to take Fondant and Gum paste classes! This first pic in of my cupcakes that i never posted about They look better in person but notice the creepy clown in the middle,..it was Scott's favorite!!

This is the final cake that we made this afternoon. It pretty much included all the techniques we had learned into one cake. Im just glad i almost mastered the rose! I think im just going to start buying pre-made roses (they are more then annoying)

I feel like we all did pretty good. (even the lady said so,..even if she was a little bossy and rude) Here are my roses up close! Pretty good if i do say so myself!

Now go make a cake,....

Tara Libby called me a few weeks ago and asked me to take a Wilton cake decorating class with her at Michaels @ the airport. Those of you who know me well know this didn't take a lot of convincing. I love anything crafty and had been wanting to do this for a while! Today was our second class and we actually decorated a cake! nothing too fancy just some simple technique to get us started! We are having so much fun and i cant wait to see how we improve over the next couple of weeks! here are two pics of my very first cake! don't look too close its not perfect!!

hehe hope this inspires someone else to just try it! It really is a lot of fun! hopefully there will be better cakes to come! i guess you have to start somewhere,...
