Now, I'll show you how to put some flowers to accent her waist. If you put a little bit of the butter cream, just kind of smear a bunch of butter cream along her waist, and then very gently place some of our flowers that we've cut out all around her waist line. You might want to use a toothpick to help place the flowers and you want to be very careful that you don't damage anything you've already done, just very gently. You see the flowers have dried a bit, we set them to try. That looks pretty. Now, we'll put some flowers around the bottom of her skirt. I'm going to change to a larger tip for putting the butter cream on before we put the frosting, so I'm going to use a little bit of a star tip here. And then I'll pipe on just a little bit of a ruffle. You just kind of move, move the pastry bag just like up and down, a little bit, to give it a little bit of a ruffly look all the way around. That will cover up any mistakes that you have on the bottom, and it gives you something to stick your flowers to. So, you can take your little white flowers and put them all around on that little bit of ruffled, white butter cream.
