Belly Casting

This past week I had the opportunity to do a belly cast on a pregnant pal. I did a body cast on myself in college for a project (very difficult and near impossible to do solo!) and I have done hand casts on the kids at school in art studio for the past few years. So when I heard my friend wanted to have her belly casted I offered to do it because it would be fun to do some "art" and it would be a nice memento for her. I think it came out great! This is 38week and 2 days belly.

Happy Valentine's Day

Here are some yummy Valentine's cupcakes that I made for the kiddies at school and the "people" at dog class.

Cuter Baby Cakes

They may be cuter than the last ones but what a ton of work! These were made for Marianne's work shower and it didn't help that the day before I spent an hour looking for the little square that is used to easily cut out the squares for the quilt. So unfortunately it then took hours to measure 480 1/2 sq inch square patches for the quilts. I think I am just going to buy another set of square cutters. These were a ton of fun to make even though they took a long time. (almost 8 hours for 25 cupcakes but that includes the 1 hour search party for the square cutter!) They are totally edible and made from fondant. One girl from work took one home and refused to share with anyone. She said it was too cute to eat!
