A Thank You Cake on Cake Central

I made this cake for friends that had given me a birthday party. I'm not at all happy w/it. I can't arrange the flowers... its all wrong! Advice will be apperciated... thanks.

I honestly didn't think "all wrong" when I looked at it. I thought the red flowers stood out and then the ivy. The white I wasn't sure what it was at first. It's hard to see some of the cake. I like the basketweave. Perhaps try to make the leaves a little thinner? It looks like you achieved that on the red flowers. Neat butterflies!

I'm not good at arranging flowers, so I can't really advise on that. I do think your cake is very nice. Your flowers are very pretty and I love the ivy!!

Thank you all soo much. I agree sonoma9, I do need to make the leaves thinner. Hopefully next time I try one of these or another arrangement, I will remember my mistakes from this one & do a better job. I do apperciate the encouragement & thank you for taking the time to look & comment.
