Love all the wedding LO's. I agree...makes me want to go back and scrap mine. (never actually did my wedding one becuase I was too scared to mess it up!) But this is inspiration to bite the bullet!
Great cake! I decorate cakes too! But fortunately did not start until after I was married. Otherwise I too may have taken on that task and lived to regret it! But yours turned out beautiful! You did a great job. It was worth the headache!
I am SO loving all your wedding LO's!! It makes me want to get my album out and start scrapping those pics. What a beautiful cake, and such a great family to help get it perfect for you. Great job!!
oh my heavens... it's gorgeous!! the lo AND the cake!!! LOVE the colors and the swirl is such an awesome touch!! soooo glad you left it! love the "fine print" at the top! great work, girl!!!
I promise, I only have a few more wedding layouts to go! My camera is is being repaired right now so I'm doing all "old" photos. I actually did a paper layout of my cake (my first one ever), but I wanted to have a digital one too. This was inspired by a magazine article in Hawaii Bride & Groom. I went back and forth on adding the swirl brush. In the end I left it in. This cake was such a LABOR of love. I don't recommend making your own wedding cake! I had a vision in my head of the cake, but did not want to spend the $800-$1500 it would cost to have someone make it. So I made the monogram myself (applying those crystals was a tedious task!), and asked my mom to bake the cake. I'd always had an easy time working with fondant so I figured it would be no big deal. WRONG! It's quite different doing a 9x13" cake and a 16x16" cake. Especially when you are only going on 2 hours of sleep and it's nearing 12AM the night before the wedding. Thank the Lord above for wonderful family! My cousins and sister-in-law all helped roll out the fondant and we got it done. The next day I left the task to assemble the cake up to my family (even though it was hard, I'm very HANDS ON). My ds even helped out. It was such a wonderful moment when my dh & I walked into the reception hall and saw the cake. My dream had come to fruition. I actually cried! (I have all this journaling on the paper LO, but wanted to keep the digital one clean, sorry for the novel!). TFL!
