DIY'er cake

My little sister was having a birthday this week and I wanted to make her a fun cake.  She is very talented, and I wanted to make a cake the shows that side of her.  I make a tote bag filled with tools that a DIY'er (Do It Yourself'er) would have.  She has refinished dressers, sewn costumes, made many calendars, and organizational items for her home, and countless crafts and she is also a really gifted writer. 

So here is her cake...


It is filled with fondant tools, everything is edible!

The top of the bag has some "fabric" poking out.  The back of the tote has blue and purple paint bottles, a yellow handled screwdriver, markers, ruler, and foam brushes for painting.  


The front of the bag had a spool of blue ribbon, glue- almost all projects include some adhesive-, scissors, pencils (for our writer), a rotary cutter, a level, and a jar of pink glitter.  

 Every cake needs the person's name on it, so I put Emma's name on the front "pocket" of the tote.  


Happy Birthday to my little sister Emma!
