I edited the rules and my prize post. Sorry it took me so long. I'm sad I missed the opening. I have to go and change it again and tell people to take pictures of their food. I kind of thought it was obvious. :( Anyway I'm off to change it again.

PaintTheSkyRed 07-10-2010 01:23 AM

It is obvious but I am just a picky person that wanted to know everything. xD I am sorry. I just wasn't sure if we had to just write a description on the entry or a picture.

Clair Voyant 07-10-2010 01:23 AM

I"m confused! >.> Do I post my ART contest entry in the thread?

kandii_k 07-10-2010 01:26 AM

lunanuova 07-10-2010 01:27 AM

Description: Well, it's really just a pencil drawing I've done. It's just some idea of an old fashion-esc styled Jester. Nothing too special.

(Cup)Cake
Your Name- PaintTheSkyRed
Ingrdients- For the cake & cupcakes: 2 cups cake flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 cup butter softened, 1 cup sugar, 6 large eggs room temperature, 2 teaspoons vanilla, 3/4 cup milk, & sprinkles
For Icing: 4 cups confectioners' sugar, 1 cup shortening, 2 tablespoons water, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, & food coloring.
Recipe- Mix all the cake/cupcake ingrdients, place in wax cupcake cups, pop in oven at 350 degrees for 30 mins, decorate/ice the cupcakes and cake then enjoy.
Inspiration- Well I added the cards because it seems like out of a deck of cards, the Joker is the least popular. So this time the Joker was the big deal compared to all the Aces. And the Joker is having it's own festival with the Feast of Fools.
Entry Name- Joker's Holiday
Entry- http://i397.photobucket.com/albums/pp51/PTSR/Cake1.jpg

(It says July '10 on the cake.)

Lilith W 07-10-2010 02:52 AM

personally think that is really cute
love that you included the recipe. Was just thinking about making a cake from scratch. Usually use boxes.

Did you make the black icing?
I've heard it is really hard to get a good black.
Just curious by the way

PaintTheSkyRed 07-10-2010 02:58 AM

Thank you. I love making cakes from scratch. Especially icing. Though I usually I use a marshmellow fluff and butter to give a very sweet flavor. And I actually did make the black icing. It took forever to get it right. It still looks kind of brown to me in certain areas. I just used food coloring. It is my best assest with icing.

kandii_k 07-10-2010 03:48 AM

You're the first entry. Congrats!!

PaintTheSkyRed 07-10-2010 04:04 AM

Thank you!! :D

Fabby 07-10-2010 06:27 AM

Oooh! Fabs must enter! She has the most lovely idea.
It will be done in Paint, because Photoshop is unhappy with the fact that I, due to my forgetfulness, have simply misplaced my valid registration key for several months now! :D But you guys like Paint, don't you?

lunanuova 07-10-2010 10:33 AM

Clair Voyant: Sorry about it not being clear. Thanks for being the first entrant to test the coding out for the entries. I've changed it now. Guess I made it too hard.
Thankyou for your entry! I love it. :)

Paint: Lovely cakes! The cards are great! Now who's going to eat them?!

Clair Voyant 07-10-2010 12:49 PM

I'm glad. :)

Siri 07-10-2010 02:39 PM

I really can't draw, but I'll try to enter the food contest. :D

Lilith W 07-10-2010 03:21 PM

@PaintTheSkyRed- Well that is really cool.
My sister and me were baking one time and decided to make art on the top of a cake and to outline everything in black. Don't know why. We were all "everything will be made by us." We never got the black right. I ended up just driving to town and buying some.
So nice job on the black. I think it all looks great.

PaintTheSkyRed 07-10-2010 03:25 PM

Luna - Thank you and my grandparents, sisters & my best friend all dug into it. I wouldn't eat it so I needed help. Lol

Lilith - Thank you. It took a long time. At one point it looked kind of reddish marron and then it went to brown and then it went to black in some places and it was highly frustrating. Lol but I think it worked out in the end. I don't know if you could tell but the little red dots on the cake are Red Hots and I wanted them to represent juggling. xD Maybe I should have said that in my entry? ^^"

Lilith W 07-10-2010 03:38 PM

I know. That happened to us too. Finally gave up when we had some weird red/purple/brown color.
I didn't notice the Red Hots. Sounds like my step-dad and sister would love that. Big fans of red hots.

kandii_k 07-10-2010 03:44 PM

@Siri- I look foward to seeing your entry

Too bad we can't actually eat anything. I am starving...

PaintTheSkyRed 07-10-2010 03:44 PM

Lol I almost gave up. And I love red hots. It was funny as I was putting them on the cake I was saying "One red hot for me, one for the cake, one for me, one for the cake, etc." Lol I bought them in the sprinkle/cake section just a small sprinkle bottle with red hots so it pours easy onto your hand.
