Nappy Cakes

kr15snw

So Ive decided I want to try and push this a bit further as I enjoy doing it, and think it could be nice to make some extra money from it.

How would you reccommend advertising myself? Leaflets to family / friends? Leaflets sent to local nurseries etc? Maybe a small advert in local shops?

What do you think?

Thanks everyone for your lovely comments!! Yeh I preferred the doggy topper as well !!

Saveapenny - your ingredients cards are fab!!! Think I need to get myself Publisher!!! I did some just using PrintArtist (very old!!) and Powerpoint but not as good as yours!!

Just wanted to say that I popped out to Asda today and they had really nice Winnie the Pooh blue fleece blankets for £2!!! They had other nice ones too for £3 but thought the £2 was really good especially for ones with WTP on so bought a couple!!

Hiya you just need to click on the IMG link below the photo then do copy (ctrl c) & then come back to here & paste (ctrl v) into your message - that should then work. HTH

and OOPPPPPsssss I've just had a friend knock the door for me to make her a cake for tomorrow :eek::eek::eek: I agreed but have just realised that i don't have any nappies and there are no shops open.

Hi

Ths is my first nappy cake, what do you think. I got all the good ideas from the talented and helpful people on this site. I don't really do crafts but I'm going to be a grandma for the first time so thought I would have a go.

Popkins I have a good few Disney ( as well as otherone)PNG files if you ever need them just ask..I find for any sort of overlay of images PNG are best because you get no white borders around the image
You should beable to do them exactly the same as mine with Powerpoint
Its getting the fill affect right but I have a good stash on jpegs for backing paper for card making so I just used those. Fonts are very easy to find, I got the Disney one from either fontface or if not google it there will be loads of options
