All I know so far is that I am doing primary colors! I am wanting to make it a two tiered cake, planning on 8in and 6in rounds. Oh by the way it is for a Two year old boy's birthday!! Anyone have suggestion beyond this?? Pictures would be great!

This is a quote from the thread I copied this from.....

Here's how I made them.
1. Print out the design to be copied on regular paper. (You can scan or copy some playing cards or seach for photos already on the net)
2. Put the paper in a sheet protector.
3. Very lightly grease the plastic protector.
4. Roll out straight gumpaste on sheet protector so that it is thin enough for you to see the design or image through.
5. Cut out design with an exacto knife
6. Trace over the design with edible markers.
7. Fill in design with markers or edible paint (icing colors thinned with alcohol).
8. Let dry and remove.
9. Place on cake.

If you have to roll the gumpaste really thin in order to see small details, the plaques will be very thin and break easily. To make them thicker, I have put them on another layer of gumpaste before they dry and attached them with some gum glue or vanilla. That way, they are very sturdy.

I hope that makes sense.
