Christening cake for Frey

One of my colleagues had a son back in March and they asked me if I would make a cake for the party, which was here in August and so I made this cake:

The cake did have the boys full name on it, but since it is a very special name I have removed it on the picture for privacy reasons. It was my first attempt at making an elephant but I think it turned out really cute. I found a vidoe on YouTube and just followed the instructions in it.

The cake consists of 3 layers of vanilla cake (drømmekage), 1 layer of elderflower mousse but this time I had added white chocolate with lemon to it and 1 layer of strawberry and rhubarb mousse. It is coated with buttercream with elderflower juice and covered with homemade fondant. All decorations are also made with homemade fondant and then I used Royal Icing for the border around the cake.

Christening cake for Laura

My boss had a baby girl back in October and March 14th it was time for her christening and he asked me if I would make the cake for them. It has been a long time since I last made one, so I must say I am a bit out of practice but I accepted anyway. The cake was ordered to be for 35 people but due to the Corona virus they ended up being a lot less, so I think the top cake went into the freezer. Here's the cake which I think turned out really pretty:

The cake consisted of 2 layers of yellow cake (drømmekage med et twist) and 1 layer of chocolate cake. The mousses were Bailey's mousse and raspberry mousse and I covered the cakes with SMBC before I put the homemade fondant on. All the decorations are also made in fondant, so it is all edible.

A naming card for Isabella

A colleague got invited for a naming party for baby Isabella, so she asked if I could make a card for the event, and of course I couldn't miss out on the opportunity for making a baby girl card. This is what I made:

The inside of the card:

Materials used:

Kaisercraft - Peek-a-Boo! collection

Scrapiniec chipboard

Tuille, lace and halfpearls from my stash

Homemade foamiran flowers + flowers from WOC

Spellbinders dies: Elegant Ovals and Labels Forty Nine

Christening card for Hugo Alvin

A colleague of mine ordered a christening card for a little boy, so I made this for him:

The inside of the card looks like this:

And no, I didn't attach the text the wrong way ☺, I simply turned the card so it had the fold upwards this time, so the card would be able to stand.

For this card I used a 12x12 sheet of paper from Best Creation Inc. called 'Sweet Baby' and blue cardstock. I used dies from Spellbinders - Matting basics 6x6 and Elegant Ovals, and from Marianne Design I used LR0218 and COL1398 (pram and banner). The flowers (except the blue ones) are from WOC and blue flowers, halfpearls and ribbon are from my stash.

Pram card for a christening

A colleague of mine resently got her second grandchild, and for her first grandchild I made a pram card (which I haven't shown here yet), and so she asked if I could do that again. She would like the card to be in green, since the little girl is red haired.

For this pram I used papers from Lemoncrafts 'Everyday Spring' collection and white cardstock, and for the pillow and blanket I used paper from a Joy Crafts 8x4 paper pad called ' Baby bloc'. I have used dies from Nellie Snellen, Presscut, Joy Crafts and Tattered Lace. I decorated the pram with lace, halfpearls and 2 splits from my stash. The little blanket is closed with half a velcro dot, and in there, you can write a little greeting.
