This was a fun challenge. I wanted to do something other than a flower for the brad placement. My chef was the perfect opportunity to do this. I had lemon pie on my mind so that's what he's made today. The pie was colored with markers then I added liquid applique and heated it. If you heat it a little bit longer it will brown a bit like meringue. The pie also has crystal effects on it.
The chef's clothes are colored using wet thumping. I don't know if that's a real technique or not, but I spritzed water on him then thumped my turquoise marker all around and it made this cool effect. It sorta ran into the yellow, but what are you gonna do?
I like the words with this as well since I am happy when I am eating dessert.
