Okay guys. I sought some help on details for this cake. I'm not looking for pats on the back or critiques. (although I'll take some pointers) I know what I could have done better (what I don't like about the cake). I just wanted to show the people who helped what they helped me do....

OK - maybe you're not looking for 'pats on the back' but here's a big one from me. The cake is terrific - I hope to learn as much from CC as you have so I can make cakes of this level.

April,

Really cute cake! You should be very proud. I know we are our own worst critics, but from our point of view this is beautiful. I love your complimentary colors and the patterns are adorable with the frogs. Way to go! thumbs_up.gif

Thanks guys! this cake was a huge first for me. I just started this (decorating) Dec 06, and the only fondant tool I own is a cutter (which I bought for this cake) So it was a big learning process and I have CC to thank as I wouldn't know anything at ALL without the great people of Cake Central!

The colors and base Idea I can't take credit for. It is a baby shower cake, so the theme is the nursery room's theme. The bottom cake is supposed to copy the wall paper/boarder that will go in the room. If you look up froggy tales from Lambs and Ivy you'll see it....

Again thanks so much for your compliments and to all who have helped!!! I'm so proud of this cake....

Yes, the pillow is cake too....I actually screwed that up but it came out okay. When it started the edges were up higher in the air, then they sort of sank over night....I think I needed a denser cake, but it was my first pillow cake so I figure you live you learn...The Frog was my first 3D figure, the draggon flies were my first work with gumpaste, and this cake is the first time I've used luster dust.....Lots of first, but I feel like I learned SO much...
