pdevine Posted March 15, 2006 Author Share Posted March 15, 2006 Thank you all so much!Lumina: I have been ordering my flowers from www.pressed-flowers.com and www.greetingsofgrace.com Both sites were given to me by Donita.Sharyl55: The way to get the hint of color on the bottom is, I poured about 1" of the pink in a stainless steel bowl. You have to make sure it is level and even, let it set like you would when you are doing a hurricane, then pour the excess off. Make sure the rim is even and level and then pour in my clear/white layer to the top and finish up just like doing a hurricane. The first one I did was with a yellow bottom and I didn't level the rim and it came out yucky looking and had jump lines in it.Thanks,,,,,,Portia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharyl55 Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 Portia, you're going to think I'm a complete idiot. Well some days maybe I am. LOL I was envisioning you making the bowel with a ballon and for the life of me couldn't figure out how you got the pink bottom. Reality is so much simpler or at least a possibility. Thanks I'll be watching for more inspiring pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
