Best Frosting - Terrible Decorating

Well, the fondant flower is pretty cute. I made this buttercream frosting from scratch. Tasted unbelievably good. I couldn't stop licking the bowl. And then I couldn't stop eating the cake. (It was too sloppy to give away ;) )

Here was my main mistake: I microwaved the butter to soften it a little. It made the frosting melty and it would not work for decorating. Can you tell how it all slumped to the bottom? And the borders are droopy. I even tried putting the frosting in the fridge for a few minutes but it didn't help a whole lot. Obviously.
