Thanks so much to everyone who helped with the cake disaster yesterday!! Without you, I wouldn't have had a cake to decorate today. It didn't turn out the way I had imagined, but I am just happy to get this one done. I would rather do a 5 tier wedding cake than another sheet cake!! LOL This was also my first FBCT and the instructions say to cover the back with the same frosting you will be using on the cake, well I did that but I guess I made it too thick... the FBCT stood up off the cake a little bit, so I had to add a border. Oh well - live and learn. Thanks again for the help everyone!!

The little prayer on the cake reads:
God, grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked, the good fortune to run into the ones that I do, and the eyesight to tell the difference!

Your cake is outstanding icon_biggrin.gif

Really hard to believe from the end result that it's less than what you imagined. (You must have some imagination!!!!)

The old granny is too cute - I can (sadly) relate to what she's saying icon_confused.gif

Very cute cake!

It's normal for the FBCT to stand up a bit.

If you want it flat, just make the entire top of the cake an FBCT. I did this in one of my pics, it's the purple elvis cake.
