Finished this terms classes

This past Saturday saw me doing 2 classes.

I finished the Bride & Groom workshop which was awesome. I really learnt a lot in this class, and I think it's something I really love. I never thought I'd find any kind of modelling relaxing but it was totally relaxing and therapuetic. I think now that I have the foundation and guidelines to find my own way in this type of sculpting.

There is loads going on in my life right now, so this is a nice 'time out' for me.

I also picked up my latest Sugarshack dvd. Her instructional dvds are really great. She certainly had the knack for giving clear directions, although as always I think it's best to take direction and then find you own way with things.

I am taking Debbie Brown's Noahs Ark workshop in a few weeks. I am so looking forward to this. I am a bit worried my skill levels are not up to scratch, but I'll give it a go!

My local cake decorating shop is having a great stock take sale for students so I am saving my $$ up to shop up a storm!! Cannot wait to add to my collection of cake decorating goodies!

Happy caking!

Not much cake decorating but lots of learning

Well it's been a very busy time for me. Not so much with cake decorating, as there has been lots going on in my life.

But I have been taking some more classes, mainly Bride & Groom modelling and now a tappits christening cake. it's been lots of fun and I am actually surprised at how much I love modelling. It's quiet, focused and relaxing. Cant wait to try things in my own way and pace once class finishes this weekend.

As for the tappits... well let's just sayt those things are lethal with blood pressure. The amount of curse words I let fly when trying to get them out. Yes, I know, roll the modelling paste very thing and let it air dry blah blah blah.... I DO IT AND IT STILL WONT WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, rubbing ears.... *woosahh* I'm relaxed.

I have still been stocking up on equipment. Lots more goodies since last time I posted. I even got me some sugar diamond!! Shiny and gorgeous!!! It's very bad having access to the net, I can find myself getting into trouble with all these wonderful things to find and buy!

I just picked up sugarshacks stacking dvd from my good friend Cheryl today. cant wait to go home and watch it. It's like my porn!! LOL

I will try and post some pics of the bride and groom and of my lovely diamonds.

Happy caking to you all (if in fact anyone is actually reading this!!)
