Miss J is 4!
I can't believe it!
For her birthday, she wanted an "Art Party". It was so much fun!
My favorite part was the cake. I haven't had this much fun making (and eating) a cake in a long time!
My inspiration for the cake was one I saw at Whisk Kid.
Instead of making a cake from scratch, I just used boxed cake mix, and Wilton food coloring (aLOT of food coloring!).
Here's how my cake turned out!
I love how bright the layers are!
Here's the whole sha-bang:
Top of the cake:
I ADORE the ruffles. Miss J seemed pretty excited too :)
To make the ruffles, I used Wilton tip #103(the rose tip), and made zig zags all over the top.
In the colors of the rainbow of course!
In the colors of the rainbow of course!
Crafty Mama was the inspiration on the ruffles!

@ Analog Girl,
ReplyDeleteI have a post with all the activities and decor from the Art Party that I will be putting up soon! We did canvas painting, face painting, and picture taking with a fun photo prop. Thanks for stopping by, and be looking for my party post!
That is beautiful! Thank you so much for linking it up! I totally wish I wasn't on a diet, because I would be making and devouring a cake that is identical right now... Great job and can't wait to see the rest of the party!
