I went to a taster cupcake decorating class and made both of these decorations in about half an hour. I’m quite impressed with myself even if my hot hands tended to melt the chocolate paste. It’s why you can see my fingerprints in the chocolate paste rose.

I polka dotted with a dotting tool and Andrea Fulerton’s white striper polish. I really like this white polish – it’s thick enough to be opaque in one dot, but runny enough that it doesn’t dry out as soon as you start nail art with them.

Probably see you next school holidays!! 
I phoned them, I think before they opened, today and left an answerphone message asking for a tracking number because neither of my deliveries scheduled for yesterday arrived. Within half an hour they’d called back apologising, having already rung Royal Mail, refunded my postage and checked the status of my parcel. I was impressed.
