Guitar themed cake

With this cake, we felt a little bit of pressure to make the cake decoration decent, as we were given the cake in the first place. So, with no guarantee of what the cake would taste like, we had to make sure our decorations were simple but effective with the cake we were given. As impressive as the staves on the side look, they were not exactly simple, so we thought we would balance the complexity with the simpleness of the spread out notes on the adjacent sides. Also, along with this cake, came the catastrophe of writing 18th birthday when it was for a 21st, with black royal icing on white fondant. Thank goodness it wiped of cleanly :/
