There is always too much to do and of course not enough time to do it all.. So, some things have to be put aside to complete others..<br />
<br />
I was at the Orange County Fair July to August doing gumpaste flower demos which is always such great fun. I get to see everyone who is part of the fair I haven't seen from the previous year and meet many new people who stop by to learn about gumpaste flowers and see how they are made.<br />
<br />
After the fair I had to get caught up with so many things and now I making some time for my blog. I am excited to share upcoming classes and the locations I am teaching at here in Orange County. I will also be doing a demo and teaching a class in LA in the near future, more info to follow soon.<br />
<br />
First I want to share with everyone the locations I teach at or will be teaching at:<br />
<br />
Here in Huntington Beach a wonderful hidden treasure for craft classes in an awesome shop called "<a href="http://www.theartloungeoc.com/" target="_blank">The Art Lounge</a>", you have to visit their shop and check out their site. I will be teaching my first class there Sept 20th and 21st. More about The Art Lounge classes I will be offering later. <br />
<br />
I will be offering classes once again in Orange at the "<a href="http://www.dragonflyshopsandgardens.com/" target="_blank">Dragonfly Shops and Gardens</a>"<br />
<br />
In the near future I will be doing a demo at <a href="http://www.bakersbodega.com/" target="_blank">"Bodega Bakery</a>" in Pico Rivera and will be teaching a class as well.<br />
<br />
I am still teaching at <a href="http://www.abccakes.com/" target="_blank">"ABC Cakes"</a> in Orange too.<br />
<br />
Thanks for following along on my blog.. Have a fantastic day!!!<br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">It is already the <span style="color: #cc0000;">3rd day of January</span> and I have so much to do and to catch up on...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I thought I would start with the end of the year and share what I did last. I was honored to be a guest contributor to <a href="http://www.blog.birdsparty.com/" target="_blank">Bird's Party Blog</a> (Unique Party Ideas and Printable Fun). When I first started my blog several years ago I found her page and have been following her since. I get lots of ideas about photographing my sugar flowers and in brief she has one fantastic blog!!!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Here is the link to the Mistletoe tutorial I did which is also on her pinterest. I made a simple and quick tutorial for those who don't decorate or make sugar flowers which I believe is doable. Most of the supplies can be purchased at Micheal's Craft store too...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"> Hope you enjoy the tutorial and although Christmas and New Years have passed you can keep it and make them for next year. Just click on the link below...</span></div>

<span style="color: #e06666;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Well, it seems 2014 just sprung up on me.. Not really but it feels like it has. I have been quite busy this past year with the sugar flowers and have neglected posting to my blog. Time is hard to manage at times and although I have a list of to do's I don't always get them as much as I try. </span></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #e06666;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">The biggest news for me is I am teaching my first class at the Texas Cake show in February of this year..I can't wait to attend and meet many of the people I have only had the opportunity to talk to online. </span></span></span></div>

<div class="intro">
Why am I so excited you ask??? The photo Tutorial of the Cymbidium Orchid I did will be available in the next four weeks on the <a href="http://www.sugaredproductions.com/membership/" target="_blank">SugarEd Productions Sugar Art School</a> website. </div>
<br />
<br />
It was a great experience to make these photo tutorials. I figured out a system, I guess you can say of writing and photo taking. I found out during this process how many steps there really are to make a sugar flower. I never really gave it much thought until I had to photograph each step of the way...<br />

2. Shape it into a cone shape, insert a wire and taper the bottom to a point too. <br />
<br />

3. Using either a spatula or veiner flatten the ball of paste. If you are veining the leaf you can use the veiner<br />
<span style="color: #674ea7;"><i>Note- use cornstarch to prevent sticking to the board and veiner when flattening</i></span><br />

5. Shape leaf and place on tray to dry. Since these are so small they dry quickly and don't loose shape laying in a tray. If you make larger leaves you can lay on foam or put fewer in container.<br />

I love making gumpaste flowers and leaves look realistic The way I create this affect is by both shaping the petal or leaves and adding the petal dust. <br />
<br />
Here are a few extra steps to take while making your flower or leaf to add a more realistic look. <br />
<br />
Start by cutting out your petal and softening the edge lightly, you shouldn't ruffle it. Just smoothing the sides of any harsh cuts really<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnycJUACxibYmfiMOStlTmmXqgJVmlU8UcbXZdeoDR7tFXQYLyfFa99RLUtqWMVbOC5TAWNyWnDMQg7L8u_P0fmpk-4aM3O1Yk0Ncoup0hnafbGFfKBjjmoUG0k88OACliL2t9cdqkEsQ/s1600/sage1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="gumpaste leaves softening the edeges" border="0" height="274" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnycJUACxibYmfiMOStlTmmXqgJVmlU8UcbXZdeoDR7tFXQYLyfFa99RLUtqWMVbOC5TAWNyWnDMQg7L8u_P0fmpk-4aM3O1Yk0Ncoup0hnafbGFfKBjjmoUG0k88OACliL2t9cdqkEsQ/s320/sage1.jpg" title="making gumpaste leaves" width="320" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Right petal is slightly softened</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
Take a Dresden tool or another tool with a similar tip. Now just along the very, very edge of the petal pull outward the edges with the tip of the Dresden tool. It is almost like shredding it a bit. You don't need to do it much or to heavily. You still want to keep it realistic looking<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue;"><i>Rememer: only the very, very edge</i></span></div>
<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUxOS_HYxMZz2UZU6cayuUw3iYtFcbWh7MoTrubbUHbu2AdZLqHMpO-DD7p0xgQWI9dWOGCSQv8G7bQuZdb4gwH8QG7UczCEInOWXO26G03vZd1ALxyi6SxtZd_Kw6xX16ULy5H2gguNc/s1600/sage2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUxOS_HYxMZz2UZU6cayuUw3iYtFcbWh7MoTrubbUHbu2AdZLqHMpO-DD7p0xgQWI9dWOGCSQv8G7bQuZdb4gwH8QG7UczCEInOWXO26G03vZd1ALxyi6SxtZd_Kw6xX16ULy5H2gguNc/s320/sage2.jpg" width="240" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Pulling the very tip out just slightly</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
<br />
After you vein your leaf take a small rounded tool such as a celstick or ball tool and run it along the very, very edge to soften. All you want to do is blend and shape it just a bit more.<br />
<span style="color: blue;"><i> </i></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue;"><i>Remember: stay along the edge or you will loose your veining.</i></span></div>

Flipping the pages of my Gumpaste flower books I came across the open Rose in Pale Pink. It caught my eye with it soft flowing petals.</div>

Doing a bit of photo research online I save several photos I like to use as reference. Here is just one!<br />

It is a brand new year which always means brand new adventures. </div>
<br />
I have been absent from my blog for some time trying to keep up with all this technology we have at our fingertips. I have to admit I am not as advanced as I should be but enough for the moment.<br />
<br />
I look forward to sharing new flowers I have been making and creating a few tutorials to share with those who ask if I have any.<br />

<br />
So far this year which is only a week into it I have made just one Fuschia flower. I have wanting to make it for ever now and just decided to go for it. I hope to make several more and create a nice small arrangement to display. <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I plan on offering classes this year and will post the list by the end of the month.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I offer private classes as well. </div>

<i><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #38761d;">I have been away from my blog for over a month</span></span> </span></i></h4>
<br />
In the past month or so I have been very busy creating new flowers and coming up with new ideas. I seem to have a list as long as I am tall of all the flowers I want to make. But the problem has always been what to make next.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #274e13;"><i><span style="color: #38761d;">So many flowers to make so very little time it seems.</span> </i></span></div>
<span style="color: #274e13;"><i><br /></i></span>
On my list to make are Sweet Peas. I had made them once when I first learned sugar flowers many years ago. I don't have them now or any photos of them. But, I do remember I made them pink. So, of course I decided when I make them they will be pink.<br />
<br />

<br />
I love how delicate and intricate they look to make. Just after making my first one I discovered they aren't difficult at all but I can say they are a bit time consuming. I always tend to choose flowers that are small and require a several to create an arrangement. Not by choice it just happens that way. <br />
<br />
So, I looked up several on the computer to get the details needed for the flower plus to see the leaves that go along with them. I didn't remember they had tendrils which really add to the arrangement and really help them look more realistic.<br />

Insert Wire</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
With ball tool or celpin using foam pad or palm of your hand</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
-Gently roll tool of your choice around in a circle over the entire petal to hallow it out slighlty so it curves.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Lay in apple crate or similar with a nice curve and let dry.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I make petals in odd numbers per layer.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Continue as large as you want the flower with any size petals</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
You can use each size or skip one for a more dramatic look and less petals </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Just keep in mind the larger they are the heavier they are and a bit more tricky to wire </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Use the right size gauge wire (strong enough to hold the petal) </div>

<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">has requested this particular flower many times.</span></div>
<br />
Christy was describing the flower she wanted as sort of a Modern Peony. Big, bold and simple with no frilling of the petals..something that was <b><i><span style="color: #351c75;">Modern</span></i></b>!!! I was looking at her with this look that said WHAT??? She knows I make flowers that look real with detail and lots of frills and this was going way outside my box. So, I listened to her description and this is what I ended up making. It was without frills Big and Bold and really looks Modern. She has requested this flower several times since and have come to love to make it. <br />

<br />
I was searching on line about Tulips and the different colors and types. Just like many flowers there are many varieties and colors... that is what poses the problem for me always, which one and what color do I want to make in sugarpaste???<br />
<br />
I came across this beautiful Tangerine color one that really didn't look like a tulip that I am familiar with. I thought it was just beautiful and had to recreate it in sugar.<br />

I didn't have tulip veiners but just had to make this flower anyway and decided I would use the tools and cutters I have and recreate it the best I can.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<u>What I used</u></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A basic leaf cutter</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Jem veining tool</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Veiner of a flower that looked like a tulip but just not quite. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Apple crate for drying</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A lot of shades of orange, pink, yellow, and some green</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Here is the what I made and call it my <i><span style="color: #990000;">Fantasy Tulip</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Since I didn't have the proper veining tools the petal changed shape while veining them by hand with my Jem tool.. I was consistent and was very happy with the end result.. </div>

Back to the drawing board to create a real double tulip in sugar...</div>

I am always happy to be invited back to do my sugar flower demo at the ORANGE COUNTY FAIR. It might be a little hectic to get so many flowers ready for display and deciding what to make or show.. Then I wonder what flowers I will demo and what to bring..and the big concern will I forget the most important things like my gumpaste??? <br />
<br />
The day arrives and it all just seems to work out fine. I did make many flowers for display that I offer classes on, and brought some flowers I just love to make and share.<br />
<br />
On the first day of the fair I had set all of the flowers up behind me on long tables that was provided. They didn't have the glass cabinet just yet.<br />
<br />

</tbody></table>
<br />
The next day the cabinet arrived and I set up all the flowers in it which I though looked pretty good..<br />
<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Display is improving....</td></tr>

<br />
But, the following day I was given cake stands and plates which just made the display of the sugar flowers just <i><span style="color: #351c75;">POP</span></i>...I was very happy!!!<br />
