Flannel Friday: Birthday Cake!

In July, I did a birthday themed storytime and this is the birthday cake I made for it!

Here’s the rhyme I used:

Flannel: Five Candles
Five candles on a birthday cake
Five, and not one more
You may blow one candle out,
And that leaves four!
(There for all to see / three; Standing straight and true / two; Helping us have fun / one; We know its task is done / none)

There’s no template, cause I just free-handed the whole thing. I sewed on the beads as sprinkles so that the cake was a little more special.

Mary has the round-up this week. Melissa started this. Anne has the archive. And you can also follow the Flannel Friday Pinterest account.

    Love that you sewed on the beads for sprinkles! What a “sweet” touch. 🙂

      The kids loved the sprinkles, too.

    This is lovely in it’s simplicity, and is one I’ll definitely copy – maybe for my birthday!

      Do it for your birthday for sure — my kids were amazed that I have a birthday too. It was so funny.
