Ok, so last night I got out my practice cake, put the icing on, and airbrushed it lime green and electric blue. Airbrushing comes so natural. Maybe it's because my daddy used to paint cars. I suppose I'm a chip off the old block. Grin.
Then I rolled out the fondant (which I forgot to put gumpaste in); cut out a few designs; cut out the letters with tappits (this is where the gumpaste int he fondant would've been handy - it would've dried faster, thus speeding up my work time, but no, the brain wasn't in 5th gear, if it was in a gear at all); and cut out some funky flowers (yes that's the name of the cutter set).
I finished around 9PM, cleaned up and ate a piece of that cake (and 1/2 a sleeve of girl scout cookies) 'cause I was running all out when I made it home from work and didn't take the time to stop and eat.
Needless to say, my right hand is hurting very bad. I need to start using my left hand again, I'm ambidextrous you know - get that from my daddy, too.
Stay tuned for more....
"Maybe it's because my daddy used to paint cars. I suppose I'm a chip off the old block." I should have known you were a fellow "Daddy's girl." Love it!
