And one of my favorite things about it, besides the awesome unconventional colors, was that precious little bee.

If you will indulge me, I would just like to show you some pictures of the finished project.

  1. Just showed my 3 year old daughter your cake,cupcakes and cookies. She said that you make “Beautiful things”.

  2. Geez a lou…that’s an expression, I swear…is there anything you can’t make? I want to follow you around while you are making such masterpieces. Every single thing is beautiful…and I love those little bees!

  3. Once again, an amazing creation! You are incredible!
    (and to Bridget: ‘Geez a lou’ is an expression, I’ve used it! And I think we’re in different parts of the country, so that means it’s national and not just local. LOL).

  4. Simply amazing! Beautifully executed… I think you could seriously become professional 🙂
    Wei-Wei

  5. Fantastic! I love finding things like fabrics, scrapbook paper, etc for inspiration. The bee cookie is my FAVORITE.
