A plain simple understated oval fruit cake covered in marzipan and then Regalice, is the base for an open peony which decorates this cake for lovely friends to celebrate their silver wedding anniversary.
There is some silver, you just can't see it on this picture, but I covered the edge of the cake board with a burgundy ribbon and then placed another narrower ribbon on top in silver.
Chris loves peonies and has her own blog 'purple peonies' showing the beautiful cards she makes.... the link is on the right hand side of this page if you fancy taking a look.
Hi, Welcome To My Blog
I love various different types of crafts and have had a dabble at most over the years, some with greater success than others. I believe that apart from loving and giving, being creative is the next most important thing to do. There is something about being creative that taps into something deep within us that makes us feel good with the world. But then we were made in the image of God, God The Creator... so I guess being creative will be second nature to us if we allow. The problem is that many people will not have a go because they make the mistake of measuring themselves against others... and that is just not a good thing to do. I create because I like to create, not because I have to impress anyone else or be better than anyone else. I created this blog with a lot of help from my son-in-law, as a personal scrap book that I am happy to share with others if they wish to take a look.... Enjoy <><
