Hi, everyone! I’ve got another fun pair of stencil sets – one of my very own Dynamic Duos™ designs - to share with you. About a year ago, I introduced my “Bridal Party” Dynamic Duos™ sets, which were designed for bridesmaids’ gifts and bridal parties. And, because they were so wildly successful, I decided to introduce a groom’s or groomsmen’s version of those sets, just in time for fall weddings!
I get into all of the details of these sets in the video. The key thing to know is that this design, like all of my Duos™ designs, is comprised of two complementary sets – a background set with pictures/imagery and a message and frame set with related messages and frames, naturally! And, with just these two sets, you can create a plethora of designs – with just two colors in this case. The need for only a few colors is another reason I love this particular design.
In addition to showing you how to use these sets on cookies, I brief you on fondant appliqué, extruding, and modeling techniques used for embellishments to go on top. I also show how to get more mileage out of a single airbrush coloring simply by adjusting your triggering and coverage through shading and outlining techniques.
