grayson's polka dot bunnies! busy week!!

Bridal Theme - Sex in the City

hmmm, not really sure if i nailed this one. i had a hard time with the hot pink icing, plus all the shoe designs turned out not so "Sex in the City" but at the end, it turned out okay. at least the bride and the guest liked it. 

tiger or a bear???

so, here is the first attempt to freehand draw a tiger. but the more i look at it, the more it looks like a bear..

  it didn't take me as long as i thought!                        

 hmmm....what do you think?

Averie's 1st Birthday!!!!!!

Averie is turning 1 this week!!!! It's amazing how fast time flies!

Koreans celebrate a baby's 1st birthday with a big party and since she is 50% Korean, we had to throw one for her too!! For her "Dol" I decided against giving out the traditional rice cakes and decided to make cookies instead. What else would I make????

Balloon cookies!!!

I hope everyone liked the design, it was cute and simple and the colors matched the banners that hung against the wall.

Oh, and check out the favor tags my sister made for Averie. I should have taken a close shot of the tags, but they were super cute! Thanks Julianne and Duane!!!!!!

I hope everyone liked it!

Flower Button Cookies

These cookies were for a friend's baby shower. She wanted pink flower button cookies. The sugar cookie recipe I used was No Fail Sugar Cookies and Antonia Royal Icing. I love using this particular icing. It dries fast and it taste good too.

I actually wanted to put holes through the cookies, but it didn't turn out so well..... I'm still working on that part. But for the most part, it does look like a button....right?

I made about 50 cookies in all. My friend was pretty happy with the results.

I had some extra cookies left over so I decided to practice designing for my next project. Averie's 1st birthday party is coming up and I plan on making balloon sugar cookies as favors. I need to make about 70 cookies, so I wanted something simple and cute. The color themes are purple, lavender and pink. I plan to have tons and tons of balloons everywhere....hence the balloon design.

Button Cookies

I made these button cookies as party favors- celebrating their 1st birthday party. The theme was "Cute as a button."

Sugar Cookies - Baby Shower

My sisters and friends threw a baby shower for me this past weekend and I thought it would be cool to make some additional goodies for the party. The baby shower was super cool and the cookies turned out pretty good. Check it out......

These were my favorites!!

Red Egg and Ginger Party Favors!! Sea Creatures...

Here is another set of cookies I made couple of weeks ago for a friend's Red Egg and Ginger Party as party favors!

Animal Sugar Cookies

These sugar cookies were baked for a friend's Red Egg and Ginger Party as party favors...


We made about 75 of these varieties and put them in individually in cellophane bags and tied with a blue ribbon, along with customized labels. Phew! It was a lot of work. But the end result was fantastic and the cookies tasted good, too. They were hit the party and even all the broken cookies (the rejects) had disappeared by the end of the night!
