Cute As A Button

Another baby shower. Wow, Valentine's Day babies are on the way :) This cake was based off of the invite that had adorable onesies and buttons in the lime green and yellow.  I never really thought buttons were all that cute until now.  I love my buttons and hate to say they are the only thing I like about this cake.  Maybe I'm all yellowed out.... or maybe it's the silly bow..... yes, it's the bow.
Funny story about the bow.  Right before my mom took the cake she suggested the bow front be covered with something to get rid of the shiny appearance.  I said no but went ahead with it anyways.  Wrong move because the powder I used ended up sticking and looking more like paint than a nice translucent luster.  Good thing I took a picture of the cake before I last minute wrecked it.  Also good thing it was a donated cake.  I would've felt horrible if I had gotten paid.  So tacky! 
I'm so excited I have another follower! Monica you made my day!  I have gotten a bit behind on my blogging mostly because I didn't think anyone really followed it but I am completely re-energized to keep on going.  Thanks for the boost.  Much, much needed!
