Might want to try an OSSAS Wedding Cake Competition Theme:

Sea to Shore 2009
Language of Flowers 2008
Hollywood Glamour 2007
Wedding Cakes Around the World 2006
Wedding Cake Couture 2005
Wedding Cakes Off the Wall 2004

Can hardly wait to see your cakes.........this should be a very good TD!!

My theme recommendation; A New York City Fashion Show

I think either a spring wedding, or a summer romance wedding cake. Use all the spring-y colors, like pink, orange, yellow, green... Make it spring-ish, summer-ish
Just a thought

I just suggested to Stephanie that you make it extremely challenging, since you are both very strong competitors and this is the ultimate showdown.

1. ~ visually communicate a word or emotion through your design (no words or specific pics allowed)
( ...this is me thinking like an art instructor...)

2. ~ design a cake around one (or all) the 7 deadly sins
(I don't mean this in any religious way, I'm just remembering an art exhibit (not cake) I saw in Scotland that was just fun and fantastic)

What do you all think? Why not think outside the box?

don't you mean, "Why not think outside the cake?" LOL

okay, how about this...ties into the wedding theme...

design a cake around the wedding phrase

Something old, something new
Something borrowed, something blue
And a silver sixpence in her shoe

I don't know....too much coffee today.

Oh you guys are killing me! I'm laughing so hard right now because I'm thinking of all these ideas you're throwing out here and I have not a single idea as to how to translate them into cake! Well except for Vicki's cake, I said well I guess I can make a blue cake? HA! I am so not ready for this

here's another curve-ball...
~ a virtual tasting contest. (just kidding )

(hint hint) I really like the 7 deadly sins idea...


Both you and Tina seem very creative and I'm sure you will know just what to do when the time comes.
