Oooppppssss Birthday Cake Went Wrong

Hiya

Tomorrow is my youngest 5 birthday.  That has gone so quick.  So I thought I would bake him a cake, like you do, I made a great one for his 2nd birthday, but sadly this one went wrong.  I bought the topper off ebay but I couldnt get it to stick and now its bent.  :(

I dont think any of the smarties are left stuck to the side either.

And this is what I wish it looked like

Its ds1's birthday next month, wonder if i am brave enough to give it a go! :D

On the plus side I also made these cupcakes for tomorrow.

And these rather funky looking cars.  And yes, they could have been neater but the icing was melting and I was very stressed by then!

I have just realised that I have not made anything for ds1's birthday.  Ds2 has the Elmo I made a while ago but ds1 has nothing.  So, do I stop making him soft toys like hubby wants or do I give him the dragon I have nearly finished or make him something just for him in which case, I am stuck for ideas.........

Time to get on pinterest I think.

Art Cases and a Cake :D

Good Afternoon

Thanks for coming back. 

I have been making small art cases for kids this week.  Ideal to keep in your bag if you have a doctors appointment or if you are in a restaurant. 

My first one came out too big.  So I have put in a diary and a A5 notepad and will put it in my folksy shop this week.

So I altered my measurements and made this one.  I like it, must make some for my kids.

My mate then ordered some for her kids, so I have made these 2 very girly ones for them.  Need to buy more pens next week.

And finally here is a huge cupcake that I made with my daughter today.  Its only taken us a month to use the cake mould. :D  Next time I must remember to oil it as half the cake was stuck to the silicone.   Never mind, I am still impressed with how well my daughter did.  Cant wait to eat it later.

Hope you all enjoy the rest of your Sunday.
