@Petra Florean - Nice challenge set. I added it to the challenge clip set; it was closed at the time you tried to upload, as I always close the set after a challenge is over so we don't get late entries or posts into that set that don't belong. And I forgot to reopen it . . . Don't you forget to add some comments here about the techniques you used and so on. TIA.

I was waiting what will happen with this technique problem, thank you to add it,I will write now all❤️

Good morning to all.I choosed theme Christmas becouse we are already close,we love this cozy warm feeling of the home sweet home,start to smell wonderful,we decorate our place and for sure most of us took the tree out from box

I decorated my gingerbread cookies with SMARTFLEX VELVET sugarpaste white and where I needed color with green and red Sugarflair and gold spray Cake Deco

To get same thickness of sugarpaste you can use when you open it with rolling pin kind of plastic slats called marzipan spacers  like this https://www.ebay.co.uk/p/1523064968?iid=324632485645

To get without other special tools as have Inspired by taste at her shop,I made it up like this ..to get those beautiful pleats on dress with help of alluminium foil added befor baking and formed already so you can see how looked after baked ,cut & covered with fondant.Details I did just with wooden stick,so I pressed in between pleats.As edible glue I prepare my with half tea spoon TYLO powder and close to100ml hot boiled water,you let it as is for a 2 hours and more  to dissolve powder in the water.Never put much just very slightly brush your cookie or surface you need to glue!

To get this blisters texture on fondant I used flame burner and simply I burned the top of gold sprayed fondantIMG_20211111_202537

Here on the top of tree cookie I colored green the fondant stired well and I used corn starch to not stuch when I press fondant in embossing folder with mistletoe texture IMG_3287 [2)

Now I see that I forgot bows,small crown and flower mold add.For the tree ornament with little bird house used special texture rolling pin to get this nice fabric texture and for the small tree ornament plastic texture sheet so I pressed inside fondant and after cut with cookie cutter and brushed with gold to tone the texture on.

This is a spectacular set with excellent use of different techniques. Were there any ideas that you tried for the first time or anything that you learned from the techniques that you used?
