Let’s get one thing out of the way, right now. I love cake. Cup cakes, wedding cakes, pancakes. Cake is good. In addition to being delicious, cake is a great medium for art. Yeah, I said it, I think amazingly decorated cakes are art–and it’s not just because I like eating art. Kristen made this Super Nintendo Cake out of red velvet (0ne of my favorites!) for her husband’s birthday. If you’ll believe it, it was her first try at a sculpted cake! Very well done, and I am sure, very delicious.
If there is one thing we love more than awesome geeky crafts, it is tutorials for awesome geeky crafts! Serena submitted her adorable Kirby Plush Tutorial that was posted on her blog. A little felt, a little batting and a lot of cute, Serena makes it simple, easy to follow, and, most importantly, painfully cute.
I’m sure I’ll be posting a lot more geeky pumpkins in the next week, but here’s four I found today on Craftster:
Mario and Luigi from Super Mario Brothers by Balatong
Ralph Wiggum from The Simpsons by craftADDchick
Sailor Moon by llia
Zombie Kids by Germanica’s husband
Craftster user wendiek made this Nintendo DS case for her son. He picked the fabric – great choice!
Or as Craftster Greg.Matta puts it – Grilltendo! He needed to be able to tell the difference between the carnivore grill and the vegan grill. Perfect solution!
