Last week I did a graduation cake. The theme colors were pink and orange. I made one layer with strawberry, one French vanilla and then for the third layer I used another French vanilla and added some orange food coloring while I mixed it.
This cake actually took 6 cake mixes, 2 for each layer.
For the greeting, I made some marshmallow fondant and let it dry a while, then I used food markers to write with.

Titus 2:3 says that we are to be
"...teachers of good things...".
We believe that part of these good things are practical skills that we all need in every day life to care for our family and neighbors.
One of our primary responsibilities as parents is equip our children with the skills and tools to one day be productive, well rounded adults. Children need to be exposed to many different areas of work. Not only should they know how to work, but they should want to work.
May the favor of the Lord our God rest upon us;
establish the work of our hands for us-
yes, establish the work of our hands.
Psalm 90:17

Is there a specific reason you used french vanilla instead of a white cake mix?
Kathy says:
If I was trying to get another color that wasn’t ‘yellow based (orange) I would have gotten a white mix. Hope that makes sense.
