Today the airbrush came out again! I decided to make a cake for my daughter who's birthday it is...in about half an hour! LOL! I've been hearing for weeks that my grandsons may be getting a tortoise as a pet....horror of horrors I have to say! I look upon these creatures as I do spiders...

Lorraine, can I ask u what colours u use in ur airbrusher? I've got my kit (xmas present from the hubby), but not got any colours yet. Seen some Kroma colours on a web site, but just wondered if you knew which are best. Bit scared of using it for the 1st time! Plastic sheeting everywhere I think! :0)

Lisa....I bought Americolors from www.surbitonart.co.uk It is a bit daunting using it for the first time but get some practice in on family and friends cakes. I'm sure you'll have great fun!

This blog is turning into the Absolutely PINK blog! I had a lot of pink paste left over so had to put it to some good use so what better way than to create a little Christening theme or Baby Shower perhaps....not so popular in the UK but it doesn't stop me trying a wee design out here and there...

You can see more views of the couple on Flickr to get the full effect of the bride's dress. I will be teaching this class in London in February and in Preston, Lancashire in May. At the moment I am discussing the Los Angeles dates which will be either March or April or a bit of both...

Finally...I have used the Airbrush I bought in Austin in August! I knew this would be the perfect cake to give it a try as the colours are mostly solid. The real test will come when I create something that requires shading...

This is the first new design for 2010 workshops around the country and perhaps Overseas...who knows. Some of the projects for Overseas have still to be decided so perhaps I'll give this one an airing and see what the response is...
