I need ideas for fun (as opposed to the over the hill type stuff) 60th birthday cake for my mom. Would like to stick to BC and RI. Any ideas?

For my mom's 60th, I make a cross-stitch cake, as cross-stitching is her hobby. Does your mom have a hobby you could incorporate into a cake?
(Oh, and I did NOT put her age on the cake. She was grateful .)

I LOVE funny over the hill cakes!

I did this one for my step-dad.

And my DD did this one

I will soon be 60, and I would not care if it was in neon lights on my cake, it depends on how people take it I guess. I can only speak for what I would like.......I would love just a pretty cake with roses and draped fondant or I would love everything 50s...like saddle shoes, 45s and 78s(records), Elvis, roller skates, hoolahoops things from whe I was growing up...that would bring a smile!!! I Love Lucy....radio shows(maybe and old radio, an old telephone with the cords that were not coiled....I could go on and on.....have fun with it

How about animal print??? Something wild 60 is the new 40

Thanks for the ideas! I think I might try to incorporate madgeowens' ideas with sebrina's DD cake!!
