Butterflies...

Yes I am crazy... I honestly get that gene from my mother.. I always call her and say " Hey mom I seen this thing ... I'm going to try it." Then I call her about 10 times that day for her advice.. It all started from the butterflies.. I was watching TV and seen them making the butterflies out of gum paste(edible) and so I thought that's awesome ..I could so do that so Monday I ran to Michael's and used my 40% coupon and started on the butterflies... I printed out a picture of one and made it in different sizes then my favorite part was painting them.. Then I had another crazy idea to put them on a cake so I used fondant that my mother had given me and some colored fondant I had. Ya not as easy as it looks but I didn't do to bad.. then I trimmed the bottom with orange and cut out leaves.. Painted swirls with red food coloring , attached butterflies and wallah... I had so much fun a made smaller butterflies for cup cakes.. the girls at work love it when I bring things in.... now it looks good but does it taste good.... will let you know...
