Reply to "Painting small areas in light colors?"

Jennabea and Kim - Thanks for all the tips! I am trying to digest all of this. I still can't get over that you consider yourself new at this Jennabea. Your cookies are just spectacular!

 

Now just to clarify, when you say that you used the white opaque color for your Silent Night cookies (which I am absolutely in love with)-- you diluted the Wilton White with a bit of vodka, added a dab of yellow gel paste, and applied that on the already dried dark blue sky, to make the little stars? Am I reading that right? 

 

That makes a lot more sense to me than what I was trying to do. 

 

Also, yes, I outlined the Russian doll in black marker but that's just the template. I did that because the copy was light and I want to be able to see it under the KK machine. However, I do want to attempt painting it without all the outlines if possible and that's why I am trying to figure out the light areas.

 

I've attached a pix here of the actual dolls I'm going to attempt to turn into cookies. That should give you a better idea. I truly don't know if this is way above my level of cookie decorator. It very well may be and I might be better off just piping. I've had the dolls for months, trying to work up the nerve to attempt them! LOL
