Anyways, I was messing around with gumpaste today because I need to get back in the swing. Gumpaste requires you to operate on a much higher level.
AKA, I have to be patient. And I hate that.
So I wanted to experiment with painting it, and since it is the fall wedding season I thought fall leaves was a perfect way.
I cut these little leaves out using the ivy leaf cutter. Next, I put orange, yellow, and brown food coloring (the paste kind) into a styrofoam bowl.
I just wiped it on the side of the bowl, like a pallette. I dipped a paper towel that I rolled into the color and then quickly dipped it in water. This makes it more liquid to use.
Using this method with three different colors I sponged them on to the leaf.
It is super simple, but such a cool way to get some color on your gumpaste.
Sparingly on the water! Pin It Now!
