CSM: pretty cake. I like the flowers that edge the dress, gives a nice put together look. Again there are the fondant flaws, could be smoother. I think the pearls for the necklace could have been more consistent in size and shape, also the bottom shell border is a bit uneven and squiggley

CSM: another great design. I would color the 'skin' a couple of shades lighter. Are you rolling your fondant on something that has divets in it? It should be smoother than what i can see in the pic.

CSM: I like this one too! The flowers on the top edge of the dress is done really well! I also think that the shade of the skin is a bit to orangey. Other than that and the fondant issues again it's great! Smile

CSM: Really nice job. I can see your fondant issues that you mention. You can pass it off as "cellulite" on this one... Laughing The added flowers on the top trim of her dress give it a nice finished look. I agree about the squiggly bottom border, but it doesn't detract from the look. Pearls are a little uneven, but honestly, I find it difficult to roll two balls the same size. I can't imagine a whole strand of them. Wink I would have used a silver liner on your board..Not shiney, more matte ...

This is very pretty!! I do agree about making the skin color lighter, it kinda looks like a sunburn lol. What fondant are you using?? Maybe kneading it a bit more might give you a smoother finish. Very nicely done!!!

CSM: I like how the board is the same shape as the cake. The flowered neckline is a great touch. I think the pearls on the dress could be a little smaller, perhaps the same size as the necklace - everything else looks dainty! I see a few issues also with the bottom border.

CSM: Very nice! I like the sheen of the dress. Critique wise I think the skin color is a bit too peachy and the shell border look a little rushed in spots.

CSM: Looks like you're fondant worked out a little better on this one. Pretty. I really like the flowered/dragree edge on the dress. Would have been more fitting with a little dressier board.

CSM: Nice cake overall! Agree w/border a bit rushed, smaller pearls. I like how your pears are very rounded. Love the tiny little flower bodice. This girls been tanning in prep for her wedding day! Very Happy I think it is a nice cake overall and you did a very nice job.
