I DIY-ed a ‘professional' level kids' birthday cake for less than £25 using Amazon & eBay buys – I didn't bake a thing
A MUM has been praised after showing how she transformed a supermarket kids' birthday cake into a "professional" level masterpiece. Ellena, a mum-of-three, wanted something special to mark daughter Gabriella's big day, at a party they were throwing for her and her school friends. 6 6 But instead of forking out for a professional to make a cake for her little girl, she decided to give it a go herself. She took to TikTok to share a look at the process, which she began with a mermaid cake she'd picked up from Tesco for £16. Ellena began with some edible glitter dust, which she sprinkled over the top of the cake for some "extra sparkle". Next up, some "mermaid sprinkles" from Amazon. "You get mermaid tails, you get mermaid shells, beads, you get loads of little different bits in the bottle," Ellena said. "I also put all the colorful beads all the way round like a rainbow type just to make it a little bit different," she said. As the transformation continued, she admitted it made her consider a career change. "This is when I realised that I was actually really enjoying it and just thought to myself, hold on, can I start making cakes?!" For a finishing touch, Ellena popped in a personalised topper she'd bought from eBay. "Here it is - her fifth birthday cake from Tesco with a personalised touch," she said. "And I'm actually pretty proud of myself. I think this mummy did pretty well with this cake guys!" "How to turn a shop cake into a professional cake for under £25!" Ellena captioned her video. This is so pretty mum," one person commented on the clip. "I'm 33 in 1 week - I might buy this cake for myself! "I want it haha, Well done to you for making a beautiful effort for your girl!" "Looks amazing!" a third commented. "You did such a good job," another gushed. Ellena could also guarantee that the cake was going to be delicious, with Tesco saying of it on their website: "Vanilla flavour sponge layered with frosting and raspberry jam, topped with frosting and lustered white chocolate decorations. "Magical mermaids are brought to life in this vanilla flavour sponge cake with under the sea coloured frostings. "Hand topped with lustered white chocolate decorations." 6 6

Bec Judd shares her version of 'elevated mum life' as she poses in activewear ensembles perfect for the school run
Rebecca Judd is a busy working mother - and she has the perfect outfits for her school runs. The mother-of-four showed off her version of 'elevated' looks for women just like her in an Instagram post on Tuesday. The AFL WAG posed in a series of activewear outfits from her own fashion line, Jaggard, along with a caption. 'Mum life but make it elevated. I've been living in these five fits' the 42-year-old wrote. Among the looks was a grey sweatshirt worn with maroon track pants and a black puffer jacket. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Rebecca Judd (pictured) is a busy working mother - and she has the perfect outfits for her school runs Bec and husband Chris Judd share four children - Oscar, 12, Billie, 10 and twins Tom and Darcy, eight. It comes after Bec went on a fiery rant as she spoke up to defend women who get plastic surgery, despite long denying she has ever had any herself. The mother-of-four shared an article on the 'uncomfortable' topic of A-list women getting work done and added her own thoughts. 'I am around the same age as Lindsay [Lohan], Anne [Hathaway] and Hilary [Duff]. For the record, I think they look unreal,' she began in her Instagram Stories post. 'Beauty standards for women are just impossible. If you show signs of ageing you have let yourself go. 'If you look too fresh faced for your age, you are accused of getting work done and blamed for promoting vanity when you should just be comfortable with growing old and looking old. '"Oh, but yuck," society says, "Women shouldn't look old." And so the cycle continues. Women can't win.' In a further post, Bec got fired up while defending the right of women to amend their looks as they saw fit—or do nothing at all. 'So here is my take on it—"Let Her". Let her have her hard earned wrinkles from years of smiling. Let her have injectables. Let her have grey hair,' she wrote. 'Let her get her roots touched up every month. Let her skin sag. Let her get a facelift. Let her wear no makeup. Let her look fully glammed. Let her have a natural smile. 'Let her get veneers. Let her have a hairy body. Let her get all the lasers. The list goes on.' Bec added: 'Let her be comfortable in the body she is in because it is her body and her choice and we are all on our own journey with ageing. 'I believe that we all sit on a spectrum of vanity. There's the zero f***s end and the full f***s end (I'm closer to the full f***s end) and no matter where you sit, you do you girl. LET HER.' Bec has long been a beacon of ageless beauty, spruiking skincare brands, facials and non-surgical treatments for her plump visage. For two decades, she has denied having any plastic surgery or cosmetic procedure done, instead pointing to healthy living and expensive skincare as her saving grace. Despite the ongoing speculation, Bec has always remained firm on the claim she maintains her glowing complexion using face peels and skincare products.

Relatable Paris Fury gives look at life as mum-of-seven & it's stark contrast to Meghan Markle post on ‘juggling it all'
THEY'RE both married to royalty in some sense, but their lives couldn't be more different. While Paris Fury is married to The Gypsy King, Tyson Fury, actress Meghan Markle is married to the Royal Family's Prince Harry - and their recent Instagram posts demonstrate just how polar their personalities are. 4 4 4 Yesterday, Paris gave an insight into what life is like as a mum-of-seven, and sarcastically joked about the 'excitement' that comes with being a hands-on parent. The 35-year-old posted an Instagram story which showed her matching up her children's socks at her dining table, and joked: 'Sock pairing, how exciting.' It was a stark contrast to 43-year-old Meghan's recent post on the same platform about 'juggling it all' as a mum-of-two. The Duchess of Sussex's photograph, which was shared on Sunday (May 11) to mark Mother's Day in the US, showed Meghan with her back to the camera carrying Archie, six, and Lilibet, three. The kids were wearing designer pyjamas, one pair of which cost £61 from La Ligne NY, and looking out of a large balcony onto some lush greenery. Meghan captioned the photograph with, 'Happy Mother's Day! Cheers to juggling it all with joy', in a bid to be relatable. But the wife of The Gypsy King, 36, presented as far more relatable from her dining table at 1pm on Monday (May 12) with a can of Coke Zero doing her household laundry. Paris has long been regarded as the most down-to-earth mumfluencer out there, despite her and Tyson's combined estimated net worth over £180 million. The couple have come a long way because just 15 years ago, they were having a £35,000 Gypsy-style one-bedroom cabin built on the site of Tyson's father's scrap yard. Fast forward to today and they now live in a £1.7 million mansion in Morecambe, Lancs. Despite her husband's astronomical wages and their life of luxury, Paris will never stop bargain hunting and doing her weekly shop in Asda. She still goes to the same superstore she and Tyson were shopping in when they first got married 16 years ago. According to the mum-of-seven, a down-to-earth attitude helps keep her children grounded - and she wants to set a humble example for them. 'None of my kids are really the type to say, 'I want this, I want that',' she revealed on their Netflix series, At Home With The Furys. 4 'Not to sound big-headed, but obviously, if I wanted to go tomorrow and shop out Selfridges' floor, I could do. 'But what am I gonna teach the kids doing that? 'To go and buy five designer handbags, 10 pairs of shoes, diamonds and pearls, what have the kids got to look forward to in life then? 'We don't want the kids to grow up spoiled and not knowing the value of something.' Paris and Tyson share Venezuela, 15, Prince John James, 13, Prince Tyson II, eight, Valencia, seven, Prince Adonis Amaziah, six, Athena, three, and Rico, one.
