My first Quince Añera Cake



Wow..... this is the first large cake I bake and decorate. My mom's god daughter was turning 15 and as a gift, she wanted to gift to her the cake for her birthday party. So as a favor she asked me if I could bake the cake. At first I was not too sure, I had never done a large cake, let alone a quince añera cake! I truly did not feel confident nor did I believe in a million years that I could accomplish such a challenge. This Challenge was fulfilled! I felt very proud on myself and realized what I can be capable of. Most important, Destiny liked her cake and the guests enjoyed a good slice of cake.

Valentine Treats


I though I would share a small project I worked on last week.I got the idea from mypinkstamper.com, Robyn has many fun and easy projects that can be used as inspiration. I made a total of 39 goodie bags for both my son and my sister's class mates. Although I was super tired after | put together all 39 goodie bags | was super satisfied with the results. Most of all, it was very rewarding to see my two kids super happy because not only did they receive a special treat, they also got to share it with their class mates.



Recipe:
Smiley Cards Gypsy cartridge
The Paper Company "Journaling" stamp set
DVWV Bright colors paper stack
Hugs & Kisses ribbon
clear hearts zip-lock treat bags (from the dollar store)
