wedding diary 9
Hi again
I hope you all had a good weekend & got lots of lovely things done.
Tonight I have my Happy Stampers club night so have put the few things ready that I need for that - I think we are doing something with colour.
During the day I have been working on the flowers for my cake. I think I have enough now & all but the last 4 are now dusted with colouring as are the few leaves that I will be using. When I make roses I always add the calyx as if for no other reason it tidies the back of the rose. When I went to do that today - couldn't find my calyx cutter. I did sell off a lot of my cake decorating things a while back as I figured I wouldn't be making any more wedding cakes. How wrong can I be! One for Nadine & Russ 3 years ago, one for my god-daughter last year & now one for me! They say necessity is the mother of invention - so I look through the cutters I have retained & found a smallish blossom cutter that was just the right size. By the time I had thinned the sugar paste with the ball tool & pulled the petals out a bit they were fine.
My shoes have had a third coat of dye & I think that will probably be just about right. Tomorrow Bob & I are visiting the hotel to finalise some of the arrangements -so things are coming to their closing stages.
