I can't leave comments

I apologize if you think I have deserted you..

for some reason I cannot leave comments. I do not understand this. I waited thinking this would pass but no such luck. SO if you haven't seen any of my comments recently ..it's becasue I can't .

Flowers, Ribbons, and bows ... OH MY!!!

I thought I would share some of my work so far. 

(Sorry about the pics in advance. Not my best photography)

For the last 2 days I have been making fondant flowers, ribbons, and bows... OH MY ...

I know have a "crick" in my neck from pinstakingly cutting flowers and other elements for my parents wedding cake. 

This is a sample cascade that will go on the cake. 

Granted, if I had more time to plan.. these would be bad ass.

I decided to go with a  Mary Engelbreit  themed flower for a whimsy look.

I pray that my mom and dad love it.. I will take like.

They are not very over the top people ..so I decided their cake should represent them.

I also have roses and leaves, that I cut and shaped by hand ..like a nut. LOL

These are just a few, there are many more. Trust me ..many many more.

 

 One of my roses.. I was hoping the pic would show the pearl dust that I hand sprinkled on each and every flower. But no such luck. It is really a nice touch .. let me tell ya. Sparkly... I love it.

Ok I have to run.. got to make more flowers!!!

 

I am soooo sentimental...

Isn't she purty?? Yes, she is a pretty gurl. And I am going to make her a sister.

My parents are celebrating their 59th wedding anniversary this Sunday.

My mom and dad never had a wedding or anything of the sort..so I am going to make them a wedding cake.

It will model this one but with a few changes.

I am hoping that they will like it. I am going to start on it today.

Making tons of flowers by hand so that will be time consuming!!

I am a sentimnetal person and I would like my parents to have a wedding cake.

They never posed for a wedding picture but I found a beautiful pic of them together and had it framed and all of the family wrote a message on the mat for them a few years ago. They LOVED IT!!! It hangs in their living room for all to see. I think my mom wanted to cry but she is not the crying type. 

I love to see my mama smile....

maybe Sunday I can make that happen.
