Moon Cat Silhouette Soap Making | Soap Challenge Club

I missed participating in the Soap Challenge Club last month but wanted to try the technique by making a Moon Cat Silhouette Soap. Thank you so much for watching, liking, & subscribing! :)
The Inlaid Designs Technique was created by Carmen Iclodean of Earth’s Raw Beauty. Carmen has created some stunning soaps using this technique and was the guest instructor for the March 2019 Soap Challenge Club. The entries for this challenge are absolutely amazing and definitely worth checking out. For more info, check out these links:
