Thanks everyone. I love making roses. I have been so inspired my many sugar artists on this site....ShirleyW, Tutugirl, Heavenly Cakes, Godiva and many more. I am improving, but I'm far from on their level. Practice, practice! That's what it takes.

No this is gumpaste. I find working with fondant to be a little to soft. Thanks for the compliment.

Thank you Lorabell. I think I am improving. I'm taking a class in rose making from Lori Ann Blethen on November 11 and hope to improve after that class. Check her out at wildflowersbylori.com. She fabulous!!
