Thanks Linda.

Anne, if you are talking about the very bottom border with the big dragee on the top, that is the equivalent of three different star tips built on top of each other, and on this particular cake, I wanted it to be as equal as possible, so my starting point was right below where each swag goes up to connect to the next swag, then I made two that were between the two on either end, that I did under the lowest point of the swag. Then I put four more to fill in between the right and the left ones for a total of 8 per swag. I also used a large star tip to begin with, then went back with a medium sized star, and then went one more time on top of them all with a very small star tip and then placed a large dragee on the top.

Hey Linda, the bottom border, do you mark the cake where it should end or do u just follow the first shell?  Sorry for the silly question but as the shell is going upward thought I would clarify.

Thank you Shaira. In all honesty, I had a heck of a time with these butter cream flowers. My icing was too soft and I kept throwing them back into the bowl! I finally had to just call it good and be done with it.

wish i could do something like this, eventually... today (for the first time), i tried to make buttercream roses. it ended up looking like mutant flowers. come to think of it, they didn't look like flowers at all. lol i could stare at this picture all day! so beautiful!
