This is a wedding cake that I made for a very close friend of my daughter back in May. The bride was a "thoroughly modern Millie" type of bride and wanted something super simple. There was not a cake topper and I tried to make the cake exactly like the picture she sent me. The cake was white cake with simple buttercream icing. The "O" monogram ended up being a wooden letter that my husband cut out for me. I painted, glittered, and then polyurethaned it. It was attached by placing a couple of toothpicks in the cake at the point of contact and literally hanging the monogram off the cake. I didn't want the wooden letter to come in contact with the cake. Because everything on the cake was white, the toothpicks didn't show because I hid them with buttercream icing.
I didn't use the Cricut cake machine or any type of papercrafting item. This was all old school cake decorating. (I used to do this for a way to make some $$$ before I went back to school.)
Enjoy -
