Here is a picture of the cake I did.

If you read my post a few days ago, I couldn't find anyone in my area to do an edible image. The one place that sells them had printer issues, and none of the bakeries here would sell me just the image. So I ended up doing a FBCT which has never worked for me before. Sooooo glad it worked this time. I lost a few nights sleep over this cake. I also want to thank Cakemommy for coming up with this idea. I loved it so much I had to borrow it from her. I think the cake turned out okay considering how much stress it caused me, but I am so glad it is over, and it is not nearly as good as cakemommy's!

Thanks for all the suggestions!

I think you are being to hard on yourself, I really like. When I took the Wilton classes my instructor told me the way you could tell the difference between a good decorator and a for so good one is when things aren't going your way, can you carry on and fix the problem with some other techinque or coverit up with a flower or something. I'm noy sure if that came out right icon_confused.gificon_confused.gif ? But thats want you did. great job.
