For those who have done coach purses, how in the world do you get that fancy C to look perfect when you hand paint it on the fondant?? I know there is a pattern, do you somehow use that? Please share, I'm starting to stresssssss!!!

Trace it onto some acetate plastic, cut the design out, press it against the fondant and paint it in.

There is a template in the gallery. I copy it onto a maylay (I believe that's how it's spelt), and use my airbrush to apply color. On one occasion I used the cans of Wilton colors.

Hope this help and good luck.
