Cake Decoratin'! Week 2

Second cake I have ever decorated!!! (Well, 8 year old birthdays don't count.)
There's a lot of ivy coming of this side... It may look artistic, but confession: I accidentally knocked a hole in that side of the cake... So I covered it up with A LOT of leaves. Actually, really, rule of thumb for the whole cake: Wherever there is a leaf, it means there was a mistake there. But I'd like to think I incorporated everything artistically! ;D

Note the basket-weaving technique! Sure, it's rather a worn-looking basket, but that just means it was well loved! So!  Oh, and we learned how to make flat flowers - hence the blue blossoms!

More basket-weavin'. Ooh, and you can see the bottom and the rim of the basket! I was just improvisin'.
