At the craft stores you can use a 40% coupon on the Wiltons, then it will only cost about $12 (or $10 if you're lucky to get a rare 50% off coupon.)

Meant to say - just knead the two together until they're mixed well.




Thanks so much! This sounds awesome, I can't wait to try it out!!! icon_biggrin.gif
