You may remember I made 29 cards for my daughter back in February when she came to see us. Today is the birthday party and as I could not come and visit my daughter sent me this picture of one of the cakes she made using the same design. Looks yummy, does not it.

Yes, looks delicious. She did a terrific job decorating this cake. Very professional looking. Hope the children had as much fun at the party as you and your daughter did preparing for it.

Yes it does! She has done a wonderful job. I do believe she has some of her mother's artistic talent. To me you are an artist with your machines. Hugs/Lillian

The cards are really cute. Did she make 29 cakes also? Talent runs in the family, such a clever idea

No, just two large ones as she was a bit pressed for time. There will be a second party for the Norwegian kids (this one was for the Dutch and English friends), and she intends to make individual cakes then.

Thank you. It was nice to get pictures of her cakes and I loved sharing this one. I should perhaps make an appliqué design of it..

You must be disappointed that you missed this party, especially since you worked so hard on making it happen, but what an inspiration you were! That cake is too perfect to eat. That creative apple certainly didn't fall too far from the tree. I hope you got lots of other wonderful pictures of the festivities. Happy Birthday to the 6 year old!

Thank you. Today was the Dutch / English party, maybe I'll fly to be with her at the Norwegian one later in the month: new cakes, new fun. Although I very much doubt I'll be able to follow the conversation of a bunch of 6 year olds speaking Norwegian. I am just about able to order a meal or a hotel room or ask for the nearest bank not very useful at the children's party. :)

I am confused. What language do you speak if it is not Norwegian?

I had to go look at a map. Wow!

I can see that the craft gene was passed along. Beautiful. It is sad that you could not be there. I hope husband is doing OK.

Thanks, I was pretty pleased seeing how she did this cake. The other one had a beautiful campfire with red and yellow fondant flames and beautiful pieces of wood made of flaky pastry.
