I wish I can say this is how my cakes came out…

I decided to be a baker today and I was convinced my baking skills were the BEST, but

boy was I wrong after following the directions to the t and measuring everything correct (except the pan size) my cake looks funny and crispy! Would you let me bake you a cake with my skills lol??  The first cake was supposed to be YELLOW cake and the second one was red velvet with cream cheese.
