Hi all it's a very wet Monday morning here, well it has hardly stopped raining all weekend. Hope you've had better weather where you are. This weekend was my Mum & Dad's 50th wedding anniversary & I was so much looking forward to going out for our family meal to celebrate. I also couldn't wait to se what they thought of the card I made for them. Pictures of which I posted on my blog the other day. the only thing that has changed is that I put a photo of them, well I punched the head of both of them & put one in each heart on the front of the box.

Well I was taking my youngest daughter Hannah to the orthodontist on Friday afternoon. I was just pulling in to the drive way after signalling & this card rammed me up the back end, I hit my head so hard on the head rest I couldn't believe it. I have never had a car accident in all the time I have been driving. Both myself & Hannah are ok just a bit shaken & will still made the appointment. Luckily enough the other driver admitted it was his fault & he was a doctor lol, so he made sure we were both ok.

Despite this we had a great weekend & my mum & dad loved the card I made the, they even put the box on display. I also made them a cake it was going to be a round one, but my was saying how much she likes the cupcake cake I have made for birthdays so instead I made them one of those. I covered the base (which would be the wrapper in a normal cupcake) in chocolate & the top in royal icing. I also made some butterflies & flowers dusted them with different coloured dusting powders & stuck them on both the top & base. I sandwiched the top & base together with vanilla butter cream & everyone has enjoyed it. I will put some photos up for you to have a look at shortly.
