im so excited!!! i havent gotten the pics on my computer yet( it crashed and burned a few weeks ago--so now i have to make due with very little space)but...... the cake i made was a 12 in hex 2 layer. each side had a different booth-- ticket booth-cotton candy-elephant ear etc. i made a rice crispy treat sc and covered it in royal mmf. it had the state fair logo on one side and the year on the other and stood up straight from the center. i also made a ferris wheel from gum paste and a small pig and cow with blue ribbons. we have a rocket on our fair grounds (??? i have no idea why) that has been there forever and is a landmark so of course it was also on there.

i will of course post the pics asap-- i promise. just had to tell every one here cuz ya'll are the ones who'll really "get it". my dh of course does but i can only tell him so many times icon_lol.gif

THANKS TO EVERY ONE ON HERE FOR THE ADVICE AND SUPPORT AND IDEAS!!! YOUR AWESOME!!

tabs8774,

Your blue ribbon cake is so intricate and detailed.

Especially liked the cow and the rocket, and the ticket booth - heck I liked the whole thing!!!!

After viewing your gallery, it's not surprising that you aced out the competition.

You Rule!!!!
