Success!

So, the cakes were a success!

The cake (mocked up with some roses, they were putting fresh flowers on on the day to match the bouquets etc)...


Not bad for our first attempt at icing a three tier fruit cake! The 12" layer was a pain in the bum mind you... Special thanks to my mam for helping me to marzipan them all!

Lemon cupcakes with lemon buttercream and fondant...


Chocolate cupcakes with raspberry buttercream and a sugar rose...


We've set up a facebook page and a blog/website so please take a look, bearing in mind they are still in their infancies!

And here was a card for the happy couple using my current favourite Tiddly Inks image and Basic Grey papers...


I'm amazed at myself for managing it with my arm still in plaster, half of it was already done though...

My wrist is starting to feel better though I can tell when I've tried to do too much with it! I'm at a fascinator class on Tuesday, not sure how that'll go but I'll give it my best shot. I'm itching to do some jewelley making at the minute but I really don't think I could manage it, the desire will probably be gone by the time I get my cast off!
