A while ago I posted some pictures of Max's "Up" Birthday cake. I said I was trying to eat less cake and instead make them for other people or make pretty things to go on top of them. Well, I'm getting ready to make some new cake toppers here in the next few days (and will be sure to update ETSY as soon as they're done), and was looking at some old ones to get a few ideas...
Mom and Dad's 25th Wedding Anniversary Cake Topper:
Mom is such a free-spirit Maria and Dad is suuuch a Captain Von Trapp, so when I found these paper versions, I knew they were destined for greatness.
The figures are little cut outs, and the paper on the Topper matches the papers used in my parent's wedding scrapbook. I love how accurately it depicts mum and pops.
Emmacita's Birthday Cake Topper:
Hahaha... this was fun to make with all sorts of flowers and sparkles and butterflies and fabrics and colors and pearls... whew. I love how tall this one is.
Well, more to come!! I've been very inspired lately with modern silhouettes and more graphic shapes, as well as bright bold colors and patterns... we'll see what artistic madness ensues...
Grateful for: Mt Bonnell FHE.
