    Hiya Candy,

    She got the Ellies from the one in the centre? Maybe we had the last of the them! Sorry hunny! I wished I still lived in the mids, there is everything there compared to where I am now :(
    There certainly is, trouble is I keep shopping in ALL of them!!!
    I've been to Asda's twice this week, and haven't found the Ellie's .... maybe they've moved them from their usual spot.
    A creative mess is better than tidy idleness :D

    Bella, I am so sorry I forgot about your stunning twin cake, when I saw the post I remembered it!

    Love the boquet! its beautiful!

    Shelley yay on the orders :D

    Julie, hope all goes to plan tomorrow ;)

    Thanks Tams had 4 this week so really pleased!!

    Have a fabulous day tomorrow Julie and dont forget to post a pic x

    Well I can't believe whats just happened - my husband is off the France to watch the rugby tomorrow (its a man's world) and is flying home on Monday. I just asked him what time he is back he went to get his tickets and realised he booked a one way ticket:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:
    I am absolutely furious he is still insisting on going even though it is now going to cost us about £100 more. Really not happy cos we are supposed to be saving for our hols in June.
    I'm stuck working nights, double back and afternoons all weekend while he is out there enjoying himself and the children have had to be passed to all the family to look after whilst I am in work :(

    Mind you I have to say I have had an evil laugh to myself :rotfl::rotfl:

    Bella, the bouquet is fab! It looks really good. I've never really been keen on them which is why I haven't done them because they often don't resemble anything like flowers! Your sock roses are so good they look amazing!

    Moonpenny I would just roll the clothes and place them in the centre of the cake. I did a 3 tier with 7 x short sleeved bodysuits,1 x sleepsuit,1 x pair of cordouroy trosuers,1 x long sleeved top,1 x dress,1 x knitted cardigan,1 x shrug type cardigan,3 x bibs,3 x pair of socks,1 x pair of booties,3 x muslin cloths,1 x 500ml johnsons baby shampoo,1 x pack of johnsons wipes
    1 x dummy and holder and 1 x baby sponge all inside of it.

    Shelley what are men like! lucky he found out before he went rather than when he tried to come back! Mine's off on a lads night out on saturday, major booze up and curry to say goodbye to one of his mates that is off to australia so I have a chick flick and takeaway planned!

    I've got another few orders, a 3 tier, a 2 tier and a box of cupcakes to do.

    Hhmm that really would be the ultimate revenge! Think that sounds like a great idea would definately wipe the smile off his face.:rotfl:

    I've not really been in the nappy cake making mood lately, think I'm sick of seeing our spare room filled with baby things and no baby! I've now got another 3 tier boys to do, so 2 x 3tiers, 1 x 2tier and the cupcakes now.
