Diaper Cake Sneak Peak & Good Morning to the World.....

My boss who had no intention of every having a baby...Career driven....has since popped up pregnant! Yay, right!? We are all excited! So she is due at the end of February and the baby shower is this Friday. I kept thinking to myself that I had to do something...something special. She's been my boss for almost 4 years. She's helped me buy a home-seen me through having my second child...and well I spend about as much time with her as I do my own husband...
So what can I do!? I knew she had all the big furniture, she wasn't finding out the sex of the baby so clothes can be kind of hard-soooo I came to the conclusion of a diaper cake. Not only would this make for a great center piece during her shower but it would be a great gift to take home and enjoy all the little trinkets too.
Okay, problem solved-I'm making her a diaper cake...Next problem, how the heck do I do that!?!?!

I did eventually figure it out after watching a youtube video or two....and here is a macro sneak peak of the final product. I do hope she likes... ;)

Also while I'm at it-it's round two for Ashely & Jill's shoot and edit challenge....Here is my shot SOOC:
The theme was "Good Morning...." As soon as we woke up this morning and my son opened his blinds I couldn't help but think of this theme. Good morning World...and I think this photo has so much potential after being touched up a little.
Good to Wow
