Scottish Thistles

Scottish Thistles

This is my first attempt at making thistles. Couldn’t really find any tutorials online so much of it was guesswork. The flower bit is made from thread and all the rest gumpaste, not the correct leaf cutter but I’m hoping no-one will notice that!! They’re for a cake for a couple getting married at Gretna Green who want just thistles for the decoration. Any feedback will be greatly appreciated :) x
