Wouldn't it be great to take that sweet candy icing from a birthday cake and add it to your scrapbook page? Here's an easy-to-follow recipe that is guaranteed to contain no calories or fat!

Supplies needed:
Liquid Appliqué
Microbeads
Birthday cake cut out
4-sided box to catch beads or bead tray or cookie sheet with sides
Heating Gun (optional)

1. Gather your supplies and plan where you will be placing your icing on your birthday cake cut out.

2. Place your cake on a flat surface and start applying liquid appliqué, which will look like your icing. It will look most realistic if the icing follows the lines of a normal birthday cake, which are around the top, sides and bottom as shown.

3. Place your birthday cake in the bead tray as shown.

4. Lightly sprinkle the microbeads over the liquid appliqué.

5. Either use the heating gun over the liquid appliqué with caution and short heating times, or wait overnight for the liquid appliqué to rise.

10. You're done! You now have a beautiful birthday cake for your page.
