hey everyone! I have been set a challenge by my tutor for the holidays. I have to make a flower, but it has to be done totally free-hand. I'm not allowed to use any cutters, just a craft knife. Does anyone have any ideas for a pretty but simple flower ( i'm in the middle of doing a waterlily to see how well i can do that one).

I have made roses without a cutter often. I often make them from chocolate clay, again, no cutters.

stephonitis (sp?)

If you make a dog bone shape piece of white gumpaste, then taking small scissors cut five petals on one end, then flatten petals and pinch the ends to abit of a point, then dust the outside base lime green and a little yellow in the center. Hollow out the center slightly. You can easily make these with our without wires.
