I have FINALLY started to explore more on the sight.. I was so excited to see Cindy doing tutorials with the Wilton Gum Paste Flower Cutter Set, I had my husband at Walmart looking all over for this set for me for Christmas.. YES they do carry it at some Walmarts.. It was a bit ironic since I had printed it out on my Michaels wish list the day before Cindy posted the poinsettia tute. I too was not a flowery person but as I sit at my computer this morning I have seven sculpted Roses in front of me.. I cant wait to make the dogwood flowers.. I do believe that alot of Clay Artists think alike... I wonder what I will think of next, just to see Cindy doing a tute the next day on that very same idea.... It must be true great minds think alike...I am so glad we have Cindy because I might be able to think of a great idea, but Cindy actually makes her great ideas come to life..Thanks Cindy you are the best....

I made a light box out of a transluscent/ opaque plastic storage box (Rubbermaid or Sterlite). It is the same concept as the cardboard box with cut out windows. The plastic filters light so not ned to cut windows. Put lights on the sides, outside of the box. I am currently taking a Photo shop class, the instructer suggested doing the same thing with a plastic milk jug, take the picture through the opening at the top m of the neck, where the lid had screwed on. I will try and take pictures of both and send them to Cindy.

@Maureen, Yes, you could use your scanner to “take” photos! I have done this when I was out of batteries for my camera. Lay a piece of fabric or color paper on top of your beads and then place the scanner cover and scan. This way you can have a nice background too.

Sure I think posting and sharing is a great idea – even if I don’t win. LOL!

I’d love to participate but am a bit nervous about showing my work to all you experts out there. I’m also not sure how to post the photos to you either.
