I Have to show you!!!!!

Helloooooooooo everyone!!!!

Today was my last class of my basic decorating class... 4 classes and a month went by already!
I felt really comfortable with what I was doing today... I made my cakes yesterday, and today after MG left for work I started preparing my icing and filling for my cake.

I made a french vanilla cake and added a cream cheese spread in the middle and covered it with strawberries.......... yum!
 Then I added the second layer of cake and the buttercream vanilla icing..
It wasn't very smooth so I put it in the fridge to settle for a while and in the mean time I did another batch of icing and colored it for my decorations.
I got my cake out and smoothed it... mmm it looked so much better!
And almost without crumbles!!!!! yei!
So I ran to my class, and when I was closing the door of my house, I was holding my supplies bag and the cake box and the keys and all, and the box slipped off my hand and the cake went down and "crashed" into a side of the box... I was so angry!

Nothing bad happened and the surface didn't got any damage, the only thing was that the cake ended up off centered from the board and I couldn't get it back to the center without making farther damage... so it stayed off centered...

Today we learned how to make roses and writing... And I added that to my cake...

Do you want to see it???

Here it is!!!!!!

I am SOOOOO happy with it!!!! I liked it a lot and I was really proud of myself!!!
It was my "graduation" cake and it really felt like that...

I wrote "Happy day" on it because I was taking it to MG's lab to share with his labmates, and it wasn't anyones birthday or celebration, so I thought I could just go for a happy day to anyone and everyone!
Here's the top view...
And one from the back where you can see better te vines and leaves I added on the sides...
Do you see how is off centered in the board???
Well, that's all for today!
I wanted to share because I'm really excited about it....
Off to some hooky time now!!!!

See you soon!
