Oh, you just thought the worms had been at my lily?  Nice save, Bonnie.  I think you may be the most positive person I've ever known!

I most certainly did!!!  Thought it made them look so much more real.  And I have learned 'everything I know' in the last 1 1/2 years too!  And so, just  '...come along, and have some fun, and join the jamboree...', And don't tell me you can't put music to that one, for I am also 66, and grew up watching them.  LOL

Hope I go t that last part right!  Oh well, don't matter nohow! lol

Hi Bonnie!  Did you notice that the lily has most of the petal tips broken off?  Some of the leaves, too!  I just noticed that I didn't even know to remove the excess powdered sugar sticking to the fondant or to trim the cake board to the size of the cake.  I have a long, long way to go, but I have learned A LOT!

You make the cake look inconsequential with that beautiful lily...
