New Meaning to being Showered with roses

2 posts in one day! Fun!

Some more of the stuff I've been working on recently. I made some roses before, and I decided to make some more to try out some different techniques and color mixes, which turned out really well! I'm planning to pair some up with chokers to wear and possibly sell if there's any interest, and make earrings as well. None of these have been glazed as of yet, I really prefer the natural look of the polymer clay for the roses. If people request the glaze though, I will add the glaze of their choice.

First are my light blue transparent roses (<3 the way they turned out!): SDC11198crop

Next up is a pair of light pink and purple roses, which also used transparent clay, but turned out more opaque from a higher ratio of colored to transparent clay:

After I did the transparent blue roses, I decided to try just a light blue rose to see how it would turn out:

This last one I'm listing is actually the first one I made in this batch, a pink rose with green leaves:

This last one doesn't actually fit the theme, but since I made it at the same time, here it is, a pair of cupcake charms with blue cups, pink frosting, and transparent glitter "sprinkles":

Hope you enjoyed seeing my newest creations! I hope to get some more finished (and hopefully added to my Etsy shop) pretty soon, please stay tuned for updates!

Lemon Meringue Pie!

Well, it's been a few weeks since I posted anything, first I was sick then my computer was lol. I did make a few things, though mostly custom orders for my co-workers. This post is all about the Lemon Meringue Pie that I tried a new method to make, I think it turned out great! I don't have a glaze on it as of yet, I haven't yet decided how or if I want to glaze it. The uncut Pie:
