I found this website called Threadless where they are having a cake contest! I thought it would be fun to enter, so I did! :) The idea is to bake a cake based on one of their T-shirt designs and upload it to their Thread Cakes gallery. I decided on a design called Summer Wind. It was not as easy as I initially thought it would be. Cutting out the face with fondant and a paring knife, not fun. Not fun at all. I would recommend a SHARP SMALL knife for this kind of work, if you are crazy enough to want to try it! ;)
Here is their design:
Here is my cake:
Day 183
I dont think I did too badly a job. :) Certainly not perfect but its only my 5th cake! lol Cant be too hard on myself. I want to try another one too. Some day. The contest is running until August so I have plenty of time. My friend Jennifer is even going to give it a go! :) YAY! It makes me happy. Jen can make some killer sweets so I am sure she will be able to make a fantastic cake! Her first try with fondant! :) Wish her luck too!

Day 178
I find it hard to believe but I think I missed this day.
Day 179
We went to see Transformers 2 at the IMAX. It was a good movie but a wee bit too long. Held Connor’s full attention until the very end though, that was amazing!
Day 180
Day 181
Day 182
Last thing, a layout I made with this month’s Guild kit, Watermelon Head and Christina Renee’s Collage Bits, seen in this month’s Artisan Notebook.
Have a great day!
Connor’s video game quote of the day: “When I come near, bad guys turn to dust.”
UPDATE! I have been approved! :)
