What was your inspiration?

I just love Emmy Shoes and wanted to try and replicate the original 'Darcy'. Sadly mine isn't as beautiful as the original, but I gave it my best!!

What are you most proud of?

This is my first attempt at a shoe and I have learnt a great deal. Lots, lots more to work on.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

I have started to write a tutorial on this project which can be found on my blog http://www.bitemebakery.co.uk/blog/emmy-shoe-gift-bag-tutorial/

Thanks. This was my first. Can't say I'd rush to make another as I prefer flowers, but check out my tutorials - it links off to other tutorials and templates.

This looks beautiful - you have done a great job. I am yet to tackle a shoe so will have to take a look at your blog for guidance.

It links out to a good video tutorial by Pink Cake Box and also a shoe template, both of which are really helpful. All I can stress is gumpaste, gumpaste, gumpaste
