A Barnyard Adventure - Diaper Cake

I have delayed posting  this 'Barnyard Themed' diaper cake, until after the baby shower, just in case the recipient wandered by my page.  This was so much fun for me, let me tell you why.
Kimberlie, my customer was so excited about the impending birth of her nephew that a little of her excitement rubbed off on me. He's a very lucky little boy to have such a great aunt!

This is the front of the cake:

Based on the registry the overall theme was from a children's book 'How Now, Brown Cow' (currently out of print).

Top Layer of Cake:

After receiving the registry info, I happily got started on my shopping spree to gather the necessary items for Kimberlie's diaper cake - oops not only is the book out of print, the blankets for the cake are no longer in stock anywhere. Internet searches and my usual resources turned up nothing that was even vaguely similar to the pattern distributed by the manufacturer (Fisher Price) of the 'Farm Friends' print.

This is when I love this job the most, when I have to stretch myself to meet my customers needs and deliver a product that exceeds their expectations.

Back of the cake:

I could have (and did find) the usual toy cows, cow prints, and 'Got Milk' accessories but I wasn't satisfied with these, furthermore cows are not the only animal in a barnyard. When I discovered these blankets with animal foot prints inspiration hit me and I decided to run with the it. Happily, she loved this baby shower gift for her nephew as much as I loved making it.

As always your feedback is welcomed.
