Challenge #50 – Julia M Usher Tutorial. First off, let me say that I love these cookies.  I have had so many issues with airbrushing – mishaps, messes, disasters, you name it.  I adore Julia’s stencils and while I have quite a few, I have been very hesitant to use them.  I felt I just couldn’t do them justice.  Additionally, I am usually focused on designs I can easily duplicate on 100 plus cookies and it was all just too much for me to wrap my head around.

After taking Julia’s class last weekend, I felt much more confident and informed.  So, I decided to select one of her airbrushing tutorials and focus on one complete design https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqxpJAZsU3A   After replaying the video a number of times , I realized that she has always provided all the necessary information – I just wasn’t paying enough attention.  When I tried the project this time, it worked like a charm.  I could not be more thrilled.

Recently, I have started gifting a few dozen cookies to various groups or individuals who have been so helpful over the past couple of years.  These will work beautifully.  Now I can’t wait to play with the other stencils that I have been too scared to try. Thank you Julia!!!!

Overjoyed to hear you say this! These look great. BTW, this set is one of my all-time faves because it does so well with "conscious color commingling" (in other words, it's forgiving even if you do overspray)!

WOW!! Lisa, these are so soooo very beautiful!! ❤️ I love the transition of colors. And I love this stencil pattern. Absolutely great work my friend!!   @LisaF

Thanks Gabi. It was a big boost to my confidence. I’m excited to play around with the airbrush more!

Excellent work all around. Do you think you will be doing more airbrusing in the future?

Thanks Christine. I am planning on air brushing more now. I can definitely see how practice can pay off. I also think I am able to do a better job of matching my current skill level with stencils and hopefully build more confidence that way.
