Black and White

First of all, I am in love with this bow. I have never used this wide of ribbon before, but, I love how it turned out. And, I like the 2 different shapes too.

Secondly, this bride wanted a true black and white wedding. Everything was black and white. She even asked her guests to wear black and white. I saw the beginnings of things and a few guests strolling in and I can only imagine the effect that a whole crowd all in black and white would have. Way cool! Its all in the details. And that is one detail that cost her nothing, but had a HUGE effect!

Metalics aren't just for your shoes!

Where to start on this cake... I learned a lot! This one was a new one for me, but after mixing about 4 colors of paint and then applying 3 coats, we got it! Metallic are everywhere, including on cakes. It definitely made a statement. Also, notice the mixing of shapes. The second layer is what is called "petal" shaped. Mixes it up a bit. I have actually seen a 3 tier cake where every shape was different. It was really cool!
