Sunday Sweets Flutters On By

John's favorite animal is the butterfly, so after I made him a rockin' rainbow butterfly wreath I thought I'd look for some sweet cakes, too. In fact, this one's like his new wreath in cake form:

Mmm, rainbow goodness. I love they they're all different sizes and styles.

Look how the gold scroll-work bridges the tiers! So cool.

I'm completely smitten with this flying frames design:

COMPLETELY. Such a fun idea!

And this one has a gothic elegance to it:

Those little red hearts add just the right touch.

I like how the branches form a frame. So sweet!

Ooh, now here's some advanced cakey architecture:

Flower topiary! It *does* have butterflies, but I'll admit I'm mostly loving those white poppies - which probably aren't even poppies, because I'm bad with flower names. Still. SO PRETTY.

Allow me to make up for the less-than-overwhelming number of butterflies on that last one with this:

Butterfly overload! And they're making a heart! Ah!

K, one last rainbow pretty for you:

They're even flying right off the cake! And look - the rainbow rain has dripped on to the cake stand.
So cute.

Happy Sunday, everyone!

Here's the 84-pc butterfly set I used to make John's wreath, I think you crafters are gonna love them:

(3D Butterfly Wall Magnet Set)

They're double-sided and come with both magnets and stickers. Definitely browse the projects in the reviews, there are so many pretty ideas!
