Cake decorating competition

Kate & Steph are delighted to judge our competition for our piece of cake decorating challenge - Kate is away until 17th August - so to tie in with Kate I have decided to give you a few more days to make and decorate your slices. Closing date is now the 17th of August, I will then post them up on the blog and Kate and Steph can judge. Remember their is a prize for the winner and runner up!

Don't forget Claire's challenge this month which is going to be a really nice one to do

Thanks K x

Our new challenge by Claire - to be completed by 25th of August

Claires challenge is.....

"As I love all things to do with nature likes birds, trees and adorable little owls I thought it would be really nice to make a card with that in mind. So your challenge ladies if you choose to accept is to make a card with a nature theme and to use a muted colour pallet."

Good luck everyone - remember cards to be in my inbox by 25th of August - send them as soon as you have done them. They will all be posted up after the 25th for voting.

Don't forget the cake decorating challenge, to be with me by 14th of August - contact me for template and instructions. Judging will take place by Steph over at Papertreyinc

A cake making competition.... well a slice

Hi Girls

Our ABC challenge is due to finish and the new one will be set by our winner next week but I was having a little chat with my good friend Linda and I thought it would be fun to set another challenge to finish on the 14th of August for a cake decorating competition.

You will see from the pictures that I have made some cake slices (I can not take the credit for this design or the idea as it came from the very charming Steph over at Papertrey who made a whole beautiful cake and filled them with chocolates and promptly gave them away.

Now my plan is that if you want to take part then hopefully I should be able to send you files with the pattern enlarged accordingly and the instructions which are ever so easy to follow (just leave me a comment on this blog posting and I will get back to you - please bear in mind that I only have email access during the working week). No printer ? Not a problem, get in touch and I will send a pattern and instructions out via snail mail for you.

Once you have them then design your slice of cake, adding whatever you want to it then email me 2 photos, one showing the top of the slice and one showing the side of the slice. (you only have to do one slice not a whole cake - please do not send pictures of the whole cake as this is unfair on everyone else's entry) Both pictures will be judged.

Then and not before all of the pieces will go up on the blog. I'm going to ask the lovely Steph and Kate from papertrey to judge a winner for me and a runner up. THERE WILL BE A PRIZE for both.

Good luck and happy cake making - calorie free until you fill it with sweeties !
