Paint Party Friday - Birthday Cake

Welcome to Paint Party Friday! It is the longest day of the year and my 60th birthday today! Coincidentally I did a birthday cake painting (6" x 6") on textured cardstock in permanent markers.

Paint Party Friday - Birthday Cake

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.

The Birthday Cake

Daughter L baked this wonderful birthday cake for son K's recent birthday. It was a blue velvet cake with whipped cream icing, and was beyond delicious.

Birthday Cake

Daughter L made this beautiful vanilla cake for her boyfriend's birthday recently.  It did not last long!  She has discovered a new whipped cream and pudding icing that she intends to use from now on.
