So a friend of my sister Bethany had the idea of gathering up all the pictures of birthday cakes etc. that you have decorated. Her blog is
Life as Mom. So I decided to join in on the fun! Here are the pictures of the cakes I have decorated.
This one was for
Emme's 6
th birthday- I actually just printed off a picture of
Mulan and put it one the cake.
This was a more difficult cake to decorate because of the horns. And then after I had put them on the cake I noticed that I put them in the wrong spot on his head! OOPS!
This was for my friend Katie's baby shower.
I made two cakes because we had a lot of people.
This was Ally's cake- I am sure most of you guessed that with the love of horses she has- funny side note, while looking at pictures of "horse" cakes she says "why are those horses dead?" Because they had made the cakes so it was like half of the horses head - so it did look like they were laying down. So we decided to make a "3d" cake. Didn't want to have a dead horse cake! :)
Emme's favorite- Tinkerbell. Which I did not draw, I actually used a cut out of an extra candy bag. I tried and just could not draw her, oh well, still came out cute!
Kylies castle cake. This one was fun, but trying to find the candies to put on it was a little difficult.
The ladybug cakes for Kylie's first birthday, the tiny one was hers and she was so mad when I was taking off the Jr. Mints- she was like back off my cake. It was so funny!
Suzy Zoo- one of my favorite little characters!
Cinderella- I loved making this one- I remember when I was younger and had a doll cake- I loved it!
Elmo- bothers me that I can see white where there should be red- oh well!
The "outer space" party. Kylie comes up with the funnest themes for her birthdays! This one I used
Necco candy for the craters in the moon and because this is a house full of girls we have no Star Wars,
Astronaut figures etc. Not saying that girls can't play with those, mine just love princesses!!! So we made figures out of
marshmallows!
The princess party! Just basically copied the plate design for this cake!
This one was by far one of the easiest cakes ever and she loved it!
This one was fun to decorate as well- I just had a more difficult time drawing her face etc. It is hard for me to get things
proportioned right- I do use the trick my older brother Jeff taught me, to use a toothpick to draw the design then actually bring in the colored icing for the piping. I too would love to take a cake decorating class. Some of those fondant cakes are amazing to me! Right now I am trying to decide what cake to do for
Mikayla's first. And I do have one more for Ally's first birthday and can not find pictures for it anywhere?
Hmmmm
This was fun
Bethany, thanks for the idea! Check her blog out and my other sister
Heather did it as well.
Well I can't believe it but Mikayla is 10 months old today! It has flown by so fast! She is crawling all over the place. Trying to sneak up the steps, standing, holding on to stuff. Clapping her hands, praising the Lord, blowing kisses and saying Dada and Mama. She is so sweet! Loves to play peekaboo or just for the girls to hide and then jump out and scare her, she giggles so loud it is so cute. She loves to eat- anything. Gets mad when her food is gone! Wouldn't know it by her weight- she is 16 lbs. My other girls were that by 6 months. She is a little peanut, probably because she is trying to keep up with her big sisters.
Hanging out with her daddy- full of grins!! I love that little smile!
