Think I got a little carried away with this one , really enjoyed doing the cats and wanted to cover the whole board and cake in butterflies and flowers. I broke loads of the butterflies and then looked at the cake and there was far to much happening for my liking so went round and flicked aload of flowers off, still think it looks a little cluttered but happier now

For my son who's going to be 8 on tuesday but is celebrating over the weekend with his cousins and family. Chances are you may not even know what 'Gogo's' are, but my son is mad about collecting them at the moment. They're 99p a packet and you get 3 little plastic figures and 3 stickers to put in your sticker book. We're on series 3 at the moment and the theme is explorers.

This cake was taken from the last theme of the sticker book, the city. I thought it was great colours and would translate well into a cake.

The cake is an 8" cake with and oval cut out of it and placed on the top. The 'stickers' are flowerpaste and rice paper, and the buildings are modelling paste that have been airbrushed. I modelled the big gogo, but the small ones are the actual plastic ones you buy

What a great weekend we had at the British Sugarcraft Guild's, Demonstarting Training seminar. Lots of laughs to be had and lessons to be learnt, and I think Vallerie and Veronica who run the programme are star's.

I must admit I was a little nervous when it came to my turn but I was the last up and had been waiting and watching the others all morning, but I think I managed to pull it off!! lol

I'll now have to have 2 assesments on my demonstration techniques and then hopefully I'll be a fully accredited demonstrator, wish me luck and if you're in a BSG Branch which falls with 100 miles or 2hrs from TA9 3QF, then give me a call.!

Also had a lovely picture sent to me from Ita White, she was one of the lucky ladies to win a 'Floppy Rabbit and Teddy bear' Tutorial last year, and decided to give it a go, I think she's done a fantastic job they look so cute and her little girl model is also adorable! Lovely to see it Ita

It's the Squire Kitchen annual exhibition this coming weekend, I'll popping down for the day on the Saturday don't be scared to say "hi!" if you see me
