Wilton Course 1

So I took the Wilton Course 1 in July and haven't gotten around to uploading my photos yet. I had a great time and found my new passion! Idefinitely loved learning new techniques, just didn't love having so many cakes and no birthdays or celebrations for them.

In class one we learned icing and thickness for different projects on the cake. We also learned what we would need for the next class.

In class two we learned how to do Stars and some different boarders. This is my cake, I loved the way it turned out with the subtle colors!

In class two we learned more techniques such as piping figures such as clowns. This was my second cake. I striped the bag so if you look close at the clowns the green outfits have blue stripes.

Class 4 was our final class, we learned the rose and leaves, as well as some boarders and other techniques. This was my final cake! I loved it!

I completed Course 1 and got a Wilton certificate :) I am doing Course 3 and Rolled fondant and Gum Paste in September then later I am going to finish Course 2.

Hope you enjoyed looking at my creations!

My Sister's Bridal Shower Gift

So another project I made for my sister for her bridal shower was a collection of recipes from family and friends that we enjoyed throughout our life. From our great grandma's soups to home made perogies. Every recipe I could think of that were our favorites as kids I wrote out and configured a little book using Story Book Creator by Creative Memories. I LOVE that program!! I had started it before my sister even got engaged to Jeremy but knew they were going to get married so I had to get a head start. I downloaded super cute scrapbook kits from Summertime Designs She has created so many amazing kits and even has most of them for free!! so here is the little project I had made :)

I was so pleased with how it came out!

I ended the book with our family tree, starting with Rachelle at the top down to our great grandparents.

Thanks for checking it out!
