This was a fun cake!!! I made it for a bridal shower where the theme was... you guessed it... Lighthouses! This cake is edible top to bottom (except for the base and the dowel holding the light house). Details are made of royal icing and MMF.

I absolutely had a blast making these tiny cupcakes that look like hamburgers and cookies that look like french fries. I saw these on Bakerella and thought they were the cutest thing. 
This was a fun dinner party to put together. My daughters decided to throw a dinner party for some of their closest friends and they called it the "Just Because" Dinner Party. Of course, mom came to the rescue. I went to Joanne's fabric and bought a piece of zebra print and made a runner for the table. I used a cute $1 chandelier stamp and made the invitations and napkin holders with zebra. and plain pink scrapbook paper. We bought wooden letters with the initial of each of the guests. I painted the girls' letters in black and white acrylic paint, zebra style, and tied a pink with black dot ribbon, and for the guys, I painted their letters in black and tied a zebra ribbon. You cannot have a dinner party without a menu. These were printed on white paper, trimmed with zebra paper and placed on a giant fun clothespin that I painted black with a little zebra or pink ribbon. For a charger I used pretty pink scrapbooking pages. For the centerpiece I used black vases with giant silk fuschia Gerbera daisies that I bought at Michael's on sale. These teens had a blast.
Great cake for a music lover or a teenager.
This was made for a little girl's Halloween Birthday party. She was delited with it.
This is a great cake for someone who is graduating from high school or college


With the economy the way that it is at the present it can be a bit expensive to go out to a nice restaurant to eat with all your friends for Valentine's. This year I decided that I would invite a few good friends and have dinner at home. Those who know me well know that I have to make it special. I found a nice digital brush for photoshop and designed my invitations and put a little bit of red bling on them. I continued the theme and designed tags that I attached to inexpensive black tiny bags and embellished them with a red satin ribbon and bling, of course, and placed some hershey kisses inside. These were party favors as well as placecards. I bought four $1 picture frames at Michael's and coverded them with scrapbook paper that fit my decor. As my guest arrived I took a picture of each couple. For the centerpiece I bought white cheap pillar candles and printed the motif I used for the invitations, etc. on tissue paper (not an easy task) and cut them to fit around the candles and with a blow dryer on medium the tissue melted into the candle seamlessly. It looked like it was printed on the candle itself. During dessert I sneaked out and printed the pictures I had taken earlier. As my guests were ready to leave I gave them the picture frame replacing the menu with the picture I took of them. It was a lovely night and we all had a great time together.
Pretty Heart Cookie Bouquet great for Valentine's or for an aniversart
Valentine's Day Cake 
This was a blast to make. These are vanilla cupcakes with cute little puple and blue flowers made out of fondant. the top tier was an 8 inch round cake. This was made for a Hawwaiian themed birthday party.
I love a pretty table especially for such a beautiful time of the year where the family gathers and thanks God for every blessing. This past year I bought these two pretty stamps and decided that I would use them to do my menus, napkin rings and place cards. You can't really see in the pictures, but I heat embossed the stamping leaving a nice puffy outline. I used nice pearlized papers in green, pumpkin and tan. I inked the edges of the menus and place cards with a sepia color. I bought a piece of fabric that has leaves and made napkins. I used a pretty sage colored tablecloth. For the centerpiece I used candles and draped a vine of leaves around it. I also made leaf cookies in the same colors as party favors and placed them in a plastic wrapper with a ribbon in similar colors.
This was my dessert cake for my last Thanksgiving dinner. The theme was Fall Leaves.
Great alone or as a centerpiece if placed on sticks
