Atari 2600
This was a fun cake to make bringing back memories of both mine and my husbands younger years! An old style games console Atari 2600. I wanted to again make the whole cake edible, so i sat and thought about all the elements and came up with what i needed to make the contol panel and switches. I have an edible printer which is a fantastic piece of equipment, before the panel could be printed it needed to be designed! This is where my computer mad husband comes in. He designed the panel which took about 2 hours and looked fantastic! but it didn't stop there, we then thought about the controller that too had the design around the base of the joystick... more desgining by my hubby. The finished cake.......


We added a little extra around the base of the cake, some printed and yes edible game graphics...... pac-man, space invaders and tank wars. Numberjacks cake (3)
Another cake to add to my photo collection. I made this cake for my friends son who is a big fan of numberjacks. It was quite a challenge especially getting in between the small gaps with the icing. Which i had to do in 2 pieces in the end as the icing was never going to fit...... ( must be an easier way) more research!! My husband helped me out by cutting the letters whilst i got on with other details like the eyes & twisted icing. So a big thank you to my hubby xAmy’s 3rd Birthday
This card was made using a plain square 6" base card, which on one side was cut in a point and this is where i layered the number 3 image.
I cut the image on my cricut using the mickey font cartridge (shadow feature) , all layers where cut with the 5" setting. I started with a plain white layer, the pink and spotty paper are both cut using the silhouette option which cuts the design with 2 pieces an outline and a middle. I chose the spotty middle and used the pink outline to make up the design.
The text ( Amy) is cut with the same cartridge but at 2 inches.
The pink and green card is bazzill bling: Feather boa & Petty cash and the spotty paper is Doodlebug Sprinkles My crafting corner
I thought after having a sort out/tidy up of my craft table i would take a few pic's to show people my little space! Doesn't it look tidy! Hmmm not for long.........
A few of my favourite stamps
All my cartridges for my favourite tool/machine the Cricut... i have another 2 on there way from the states and i can't wait to have a play!
After purchasing my new draw unit! ( which is fab) from Ikea it keeps all my punches and paper tidy.
I would recommend this draw unit to everyone!
The finished banner
I've finally finshed and taken a pic of the banner for Ben.
The words are cut using my Cricut and cartridge - Mickey font, shadow option, size 5 inch's.
The letter are link together using flower brads which have a 5 petal design.
I've added another Spongebob image to balance out the spacings between words, and placed each image onto Red card cut out in the design of the flower from the background scene of bikini bottom.
The overall lenght of the banner is 75 inch's (including Ben's name)
