Bring on the Creativity

We have been trying some new creative endeavours in our family this month, too. As a Christmas Gift, I received a gift card for Cake Decorating classes. (Thanks Scott and Tricia!). The classes were a lot of fun and I feel confident enough to attempt Emma's choice in birthday cakes later this month. Here are a few of my finished assignments.

This is my first cake, practicing stars and writing

Here is my last cake...

For some reason, I was intimidated about doing the roses, I got more confident as I did more and that started looking better

Emma wanted to pose with the cake... She loved that I used purple
Speaking of Emma, she has been getting her craft on, too

In cooking class she made this chocolate snowman
She has also really gotten into making Valentines this month. It amazing what she can do with a few hearts and some glitter glue...
Here are the Valentines she chose to make for her class party

We got the idea from the website www.familyfun.com. I think they turned out well and Emma is excited to share with her class. It is really fun to do crafts with Emma. Sometimes the finished product does not turn out like I want it to, but Emma is always excited that she created something on her own
