I had a cake order to do on the 4th of July. What other colors can you put on a 4th of July cake besides red, white and blue.
In other news:
Yesterday Grace left the following comment: I love the bird one - it has a 'style' to it - like your trolls and the ladies. And I'm admiring your technique - is that all instinct or have you been taking lessons, so to be speak, like instructional videos - I was particularly struck by the eyes on the zebra and the shading on the the ice pops...
No, I haven't been taking any lessons or watching videos. I go through Pinterest and find pictures that I like and try and copy them. Some are almost identical to the picture I'm working from and some I just go with the concept or take parts and work from there. I have a board on Pinterest with the label "Artsy Fun" When I find something I think I might want to try and draw I pin it to that board.
I need to go to your Pinterest board!! Love the cake, it is not overly patriotic!
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love that cake! The colors sing.
ReplyDeleteI love that cake!
ReplyDeleteso true, born on the 4th of July, what else could they do? many years ago, I did a doll cake, remember the ones with the cake as a hoopskirts and stick a doll up to her waist? my aunts was red, white and blue. I need to find the photo.
ReplyDeleteThere is also a movie born on the 4th of July!!
ReplyDeleteThe colors of the cake are perfect!
Yes, you definitely have a talent that is never too late to cultivate!!
I started studying to write better at the age of 46 and I'm still doing it... Have a great day!
The cake is pretty. You really are very talented in many ways. Enjoy your Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteI love that cake. I took a slice. Delicious.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day and week, Ann. Big hug to you and lots of scritches to Gibbs. ♥
OK - so sheer talent! I wish you would do more ladies - there could be a whole theme/story line with them - You know the ones I'm talking about? The ones in this post - https://annssnapeditscrap.blogspot.com/2024/05/wheres-my-markers.html
ReplyDeleteAnd your cats are terrific and your birds - but your mushrooms and your trolls are topnotch - they always make me smile - would be great on mugs or tote bags - you should think about opening a redbubble or zazzle store - they are print on demand - don't require you to make/ship the items. Think about it. 💜💜
Lovely cake!
ReplyDeleteI agree, of course it has to be red, white and blue. It looks so pretty.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely you would do red, white and blue. The cake is very pretty.
ReplyDeleteI think the cake looks great.
ReplyDeleteDoes blue icing still give you a blue tongue and lips. :)
Your latest cake, yes, red white and blue. Very pretty! I thought about the smile this must have brought to a mother’s face. I am going over to Pinterest to find your board. I go there all the time.
