And the winner is...not me :)

I really didn't enter to win, it would have been nice, but I don't feel bad about how it ended up.  About a month ago I decided that I wanted to enter a cake into the Eastern Idaho State Fair Sugar Art competition.  The theme was wall to wall and the design needed to be based on a wallpaper design.  So, I searched the Internet and found a swatch that I could envision on a cake.
The whole planning process was actually fun, drawing it out and thinking of different techniques that I wanted to try.  The only thing that I wasn't crazy about was the fact that it was a very monochromatic color scheme.  But I did think it turned out rather elegant.

I should really start to take progress pics.  But for now the final results will have to do.






No matter the results I learned so much and love this little hobby of mine.  By the way I got third place, other wise known as last, since there were only three entries in my division.   More on that later ;)
