Western Cookie for the Bride to Be

I was pretty excited to get this order, for a western themed bridal shower.  I haven't had many request for a western theme.  Just something simple.  The hats are chocolate sugar cookies and the boots are a delicious almond sugar cookies.  They are trimmed in white icing, Then are attached to sticks and set into a decorative box.

Birthday Cookies

These are the cookies I baked for my daughter to take to school for her birthday treats.

At first she didn't want to take them, then she decided she did.

Gotta admit, it hurt my feelings for a little.

They are my usual cream cheese cookies with fondant.

I haven't heard the report back, if the kids enjoyed them or not.

Looking at the picture, it would have been funner to do a rainbow of colors.

It's a good idea, I may try that another time!

 

 

Thanks for stopping by.....have an incredible day!

Frog Cookie Box for St. Patrick's day

We had a St. Patrick's day party over the weekend. 

I made this cookie box to share some cookies I made on 

Friday, with my daycare kids.  They all got to decroate

some cookies to take home.  We had a fun day.  It was a fun weekend as

 a matter of fact.  It was warm enough to take a bike ride.  We had a bit of a lazy

Sunday, watching some 007 movies, and made an Irish dinner.  

I hope all of you got to have some fun too.  

Recipe:

Live Simply: Frog 6"

Sweet Treats: The box

Everyday Paper Dolls: Hat and Pot O Gold

I used some green glitter on the hat, and dazzling diamonds

on the gold.  Googlie eye on the frog.  The cookies

were definitely the hard part.

Thanks for stopping by, have a wonderful day!

Star Spangles #16

Challenge #16 Independence day Theme with a Star shape: Create a 4th of July project adding a star shape somewhere on your project.

Enter your project here! Fantabulous Cricut and what great prizes you could win.

I definitely think I fulfilled the star requirement. The box is cut from sweet treats. The stamps on the box are from SU 4th of July colors: real red, yoyo yellow, and

The boy is cut from a child's first year.

I haven't made actual "decorated" cookies for quit a while. Who am I kidding--it's been years, since I have taken the time to decorate cookies. I love this technique. You can see a glimpse of the tissue paper in the back. I used my su star wheel to roll it with. My kids were very excited to see this, and get to eat some pretty cookies. Instead of just plain ol' chocolate chip. Cute what makes kids feel loved isn't it! :) Have a wonderful day, take care and see you soon.

I Got a Cricut Cake Machine!!!!!

I am sooo excited...I got a Cricut Cake on Friday for my birthday. tee hee my birthday isn't until August. It was on a good sale, so my wonderful BF got it for me. Yes, I know I am spoiled, but I thoroughly enjoy it, ~and I am so worth it =) ha ha! Along with the Cricut Cake, I got the sweet treats cartridge. These boxes were the first things I made, one with a 2 and the other with a 4. Both for my cute nephews. I was trying to think of something fun I could fill the boxes with, all I was coming up with was a bag of candy. I had one of those miraculous early morning creative revolutions (at 2:20 am), I thought that cookies would cute in them. AND I could use my cake! Oh the beginnings of a happy day. "Now go back to sleep until a normal hour. "

So this is my box--I used SU "birthday party" simply scrappin' kit, for both boxes.

As you are looking at these remember this is my first attempt, so please...be gentle...

The first thing I tried to cut was some cookie dough, No, I can't start with the typical stuff. But the dough has to be too thin, and the recipe didn't work very well. blah blah blah, (I'll try this another day) on to the gum paste. I used the cake basics that came with it, and started cutting some shapes.

Then moved onto mickey and friends to cut out the car, airplane, and train. The beautiful thing about kids, is they are not picky, and they think you are so cool. The mom sent me a text the next morning..."Max is eating one of his cookies, she tells him Aunt Sharon makes the best cookies, and cakes. He says and the best pancakes." I just love that boy! This is for my other nephew. I am anxious to try making some more. They were fun. Thanks for looking! Enjoy your day.
