Thanks everyone for your kind comments. (auntiem9507) For the monogram piece, I cut gumpaste with a round cutter. Using a clay extruder, I made a smooth rope to glue around the outside edge of the circle. Stenciled the intial on the circle. Let it dry and painted it gold. Randomly piped swirls etc. around the edges. To make it stand, I turned the circle over glued a tongue depresser (or popcicle stick) to the back and placed a thinner piece of gumpaste over the depresser to hold it to the circle. Just let it dry before placing it on the cake.
