Thank you CC for all of your help and inspiration over the years. So many of you share your work, tips, and experience not asking for anything in return. I'm here to tell you thank you! I learned almost everything I know about cake decorating from this site. Now I'm one of five finalists in a major national decorating challenge, and I wouldn't have made it if it weren't for all of you. Wish me luck! I could win $10,000!

Wow! Good for you!

Good luck.

You GO GIRL!!!

Congratulations and Good Luck!

Cool! That makes us all almost famous by association!!! Best of luck to you!

Thank you! If I'm famous, it's just the 15 minute kind. I'll be happy to share it with all of you.

That's AWESOME.. good luck..

Woo-effin'-hooo! Congrats and good luck!

I too, congratulate you. That is awesome!!!! Good Luck!!!

Thank you all! I'll find out in a few weeks if I won. I'll post an update either way. I'm so excited!

Sending luck and best wishes for a victory!!

Good luck!!

Congrats and the Best of Luck to you. Will your event be televised or
you tubed? I would love to watch.

Many thanks! I imagine that the winner would make some public appearances. It'll also be online.

Congratulations to you!

That's just too stinkin' awesome! Congratulations!

So Awesome! Congrats & good luck.

I won! I won! I couldn't give a lot of details earlier because the contest depended on public votes. To post about it in the forums was soliciting. Now, I can finally share it with the place that taught me how to decorate a cupcake!

Awesome job! And your cupcake was just darling!!!

WOW how exciting!! Congrats
Now you must tell us WHAT are you going to do with all those $$$$$$??

LOL...isn't it wonderful that one of our own won! I posted the contest on my facebook page and asked all the people in my little town to vote for Lisa...I said she was a cousin (otherwise they wouldn't trust a northerner!) So Lisa, if you ever make it down to rural South Carolina, stop in but remember to call me cousin!

holy cow! i'm doing backflips for ya!!! big hug!

Wow how awesome.. Congrats!! Cute cupcakes

Yay for you and congratulations on the big win! I'm sure you could use the money and so glad it was you that won. I think the cupcake is so cute and I'm sure everyone loved it.
