Becca + Sam: The Wedding Cake

I am so excited to post about this wedding cake. I absolutely love it & had so much fun creating it. With this being my most elaborate cake thus far, I must say I am pretty proud of it!

I love the simplicity, yet textural details, of the white on white design. Becca was so great to work with & aside from knowing she wanted 3 round tiers in white fondant, she pretty much left the cake design open for me to do as I pleased. I really hope she ended up liking it as much as I did. Congrats to the newlyweds & best wishes to them in starting their life together!

Etsy Shop: 2012 Young Women Theme w/ Full Scripture

Check out the newest Etsy shop addition! I have had quite a few buyers for my original 2012 YW Theme poster (here), and because I have recently been receiving requests for a similar poster which would include the full scripture, rather than just the reference as in the original I am now offering one in my shop.

This would be a great addition to any Young Women classroom, framed and placed where they can see it every week; or even as a personal gift to a young woman herself. This newest poster can be purchased here

The Vincent Family

Remember these cute kiddos, and their brave mom Hayley who gave me my very first shot at a "real photo shoot session"? Well, they're back and I'm excited to share a few of the photos on here!

When I arrived for their photo session Hayley informed me that they had never had family photos since having all three of their children, so this was way overdue and I was excited that she had asked me to take them! I really love their choice of outfits & colors. I think she did a great job at coordinating, but not being too "matchy matchy" by throwing a few different patters into the mix--compiling a wardrobe for photos is a tough and she totally pulled it off. Check out some of my faves from the shoot below:



And of course, what better way to show off your family photos than sending out a holiday card? Below is the design I did for the Vincent's, I really love the cherry blossom branch that coordinates with the colors in their photo.


Hayley & Family: Thanks so much for allowing me to take the your "first" family photos, I hope you enjoy them!

Happy Owl--O-Ween!

Okay, so I have day dreamed about these cookies for weeks just waiting for it to get JUST close enough to halloween that I could start working on them. And when I say "working on them", I mean WORKING on them. I made 18 of these cheery little cookies and it took me a good 5 days of a production line-type assembly , starting with the adorable fondant owls. Today I finished them up by baking the sugar cookies, creating the royal icing background, adding the buttercream branch and plopping on the owls. LOTS of work, but really... I couldn't be happier with the way the turned out, so it was totally worth it! I love little "occasions" to whip out all the stops on pretty little treats! And with a cute tag-line of "Happy Owl-o-ween", which includes a chevron background & mini owl perched on the text....who could resist?!

Etsy Shop: 2012 LDS Primary Theme Poster

Newest addition to the Etsy shop, 2012 Primary Theme : Choose the Right. My LDS-themed designs seem to be the top sellers in my shop and so I've been racking my brain for a while now trying to think of something fresh and fun to do with 2012 Primary theme, Choose the Right--which is where this design came into play. I love the traditional CTR shield but gave it a twist by placing a fun word layout within it, and making it "pop" by designing it in 5 kid-friendly colors.
