The class looks so much fun and I wish I lived in the area. What you do in gum paste...I do in paper! XOXO
I learnt so much and had a ball in the five days I spent in your classes at Whimsical.
When I look at the flower vase I still can't believe I made it.
I look forward to practicing my flowers more and putting them on some of my cakes soon.
I can't wait till you visit Sydney again and I can learn some more of your beautiful flowers.
