I made everything from scratch....lots of fun, but the cake was a bit disappointing. The ribbons are a bit sad looking, but it's my first time...it can only get better, right?
Here are my 2 feeble attempts so far:

my new hobby
One of my favorite birthday memories was helping a friend decorate my cake for my 10th or 11th birthday party. It was a heart with a rainbow radiating out of it....my design, of course. Rainbows and hearts were the few things I could draw...and I drew them on everything. Ever since then, I've always thought about doing more cakes, but never did anything about it. Well, better late than never, so in preparation for Hannah's birthday cake, I'm playing around with fondant.

I am very impressed. I didn't make anything that good in my three Wilton sections.
Hannah is one lucky girl to have a mom like you.
PS. Even in my Wilton classes we used box mixes. It's the presentation.
Thanks, Babs!
I'm glad even the Wilton classes used boxed mixes....I think that's what I'll be doing for awhile.
Those decorating skills are amazing!!! :) Can I get a cake when I come for a visit?
Krista, I'm super impressed. They both look good to me.
Awww, thanks guys.
Now I just need to get them to taste a bit better.
Wow! They are so cute! You are truly multi-talented.
Good Job!! They both look great!
I love the way you take such great joy in trying to do things for both Hannah and Isaac. Looking forward to the big birthday gathering.
Kris, these are awesome! Maybe we could make some cakes when you come... could this be a side job? I'd hire you!
There is no way that is your first attempt! I am very impressed. You need to teach me this new skill of yours. My kids cakes are filled with stars and dots, that's about all can after my class. :) What a cute cake!
