Yes, my first time making gumpste flowers and working with this medium. I watched several tutorials on YouTube but this is definitely a hands on learning experience. Here is one of my favorites tutorials:
There are actually a series of them to watch from making a rose bud to storing your gumpaste flowers. I love how they make it look so easy but in fact it is a pain in the arse! My best words of advice – patience, practice and have fun!
Ok, so far I’ve made two roses. They are both different from in each other in a way that one looks more modern and the other more traditional. What do you think?

It kind of resembles this Chanel pin that is to die for. Maybe I should wear it?
