Here is the bday cake I made for BIL (at the request of SIL) :D
I wasn't happy with the writing on the hood, and was going to wait for it to dry a bit and pick it off with a toothpick. DH talked me out of it. I was in a big hurry on this one.
#8 Dale Earnhardt JR Budweiser RACE CAR! (yeah, I saw him racing a couple weeks ago!) woo-hoo!

Hello kitty FBCT (frozen buttercream Transfer)...(BTW, I gave the icing a "trialed" or stucco-type finish--anyway, a non-smooth, jaggedy effect.)
My cousin's Bridal Shower Hello Kitty Cake. Half was RV (red velvet), the other half triple chocolate fudge.

Miranda....those are awesome cakes!!!! and I think the writing looks ok too...agree with your hubby!
Black and red are two of the HARDEST colors to obtain for frosting cakes too...at least I always thought so when I did cakes! LOL

I definately agree!! BLACK AND RED ARE THE WORST! Seems like I usally have them both to deal with each time...at least always black...
I like a challenge, though.

HAHA!
With the baby at my feet, stomping...or running off while I clean my hands to run after him....it just takes a whole lot longer! Sometimes he bumps me, and I have to fix it... sometimes he will sit and watch TV! ? Sometimes I give him some crumbs to eat.
DH was here helping me do the Dale Jr one. I get up really early or stay up really late sometimes while the kids are in bed.
