63 dtg!!!!

After watching Ace of Cakes last night, I was inspired to start laying out the design of my cupcake tower tiers.....what colors? what pattern if any? what flowers??

I drew out a plan on paper with colored pencils....but it's hard to really get a good vision....so I figured I might as well just look at other pictures!

This obviously stood out to me first, because our runners are damask.....and those are the same orchids that we will have scattered EVERYWHERE!

I like the subtlety of the damask against the white, but also the green ribbon.

I love how the green on this one pops....but I think I would go with a green ribbon that is slightly darker.....again, same orchids.

I really want to paint on a subtle piping design, whether it is like this henna, or a damask.

So many choices!

I also did start the test out the Rub-onz on the wood door hangers. I sanded the wood, painted a coat of gloss medium/varnish and then put on the text. The only downside is that you can see the halo around the words, so it looks like I am going to need to paint it before applying the Rub-onz. So we'll see how those turn out!
