Welcome to Paint Party Friday! This is a birthday cake done in my sketchbook (9" x 12") in permanent markers, sharpie oils and outlined with a PITT fine point marker. It is based on an actual cake that daughter L designed for her brother. K thought I should paint it. It was a smaller cake surrounded by cupcakes, with a luxury car theme.
My children have April birthdays, I planned it that way so that I could have maternity leaves off work during the summer and was lucky it worked out that way.
Wow! What awesome pre-planning!
ReplyDeleteVery nice!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cake painting. Well done on planning your kids so well! My daughter should have been born on April 1st but she fooled us all and arrived 3 days earlier! Hugs, Valerie

It must have been a lovely cake! My birthday is also in April, actually it was a week ago, I am 30 now☺
ReplyDeleteYour daughter is such a talented baker! I’m not surprised you planned the timing of the birth of your children to allow summer maternity leave, in all the time I’ve known you I think of you as highly organized and precise about details, I admire that a lot, great painting!
