IBIE Day 4 - Last Day

I took my second four hour class on the last day and it was an Airbrushing class with Marsha and Roland Winbeckler. The Winbecklers are a married cake artist team that have been doing cakes for ages and have made some amazing cakes - go on and Google them.Roland is a whiz at airbrushing and he taught us four hours worth of techniques and we got to practice as well. It really made me feel more confident about using my airbrush and wanting to buy a new one (the one we used in class). Check out some of the stuff I learned how to do. I learned that having control with the airbrush is very important and we did worksheets to help us with that. He also taught us how to make stencils and how to use other tools to help in airbrushing. It was totally a worthwhile class and I am glad I took it.I spent the rest of my day finalizing a deal with Somerset about a new fondant sheeter and watching a SugarVeil Demo done by Julie Bashore (got a pic with her). I also tried to get one more look at as many booths as I could even though they started packing up to leave early. I guess not as many people stay the whole 4 days. It was totally worth it to me. It was an amazing experience. I did miss my girls though and was excited to go home to them.
