Making Valentine's Day Cookies -- A Photo Story

I generally try not to make more than one post in a day, but this is an exception. Tomorrow it will be past Valentine's Day and therefore this photo story would be out of place! But today, here is a little photo story starring Beth and Maggie :)

Enjoy!

~~~


 "Hi Maggie!" Beth said, spying Maggie come in the door.


"Hey Beth, are you making cookies?" Maggie asked.

"Yeah! If you want, go change your clothes and you can help." Beth offered.

"Cool!" Maggie said as she headed to change out of her Valentine's Day dress.


"Alright, I'm back."


"Great! There's red and pink icing. Take your pick." Beth said as she frosted a heart cookie.



Maggie frosted for a moment, then said. "Hm. Mine doesn't look like yours..." Maggie showed Beth her pink cookie.


"You just need to use more frosting," Beth said sweetly.


 "Like this?" Maggie asked.

"Perfect! Good job," Beth commended.


"This is fun! I think I'll make one that is half red and half pink!" Maggie excitedly slapped the frosting on the sugar cookie.

"That's a really good idea!" Beth smiled.


When they were all done, the girls admired their cookies.


"Now let's eat 'em!" Maggie cried gleefully.

 "First I need to make a plate for the neighbors." Beth said, taking a pink plate and same clear wrap.


"Okay," Maggie sighed impatiently.


The girls then posed for a photo with their lovely cookies :)


"They're delicious!" Maggie exclaimed.

Spring/Easter Cookies!

I recently made these little cookies!


 
I mixed together some clay to the approximate color of a cookie and rolled it out. I used some tiny cookie cutters to get the shapes.

 
For a more realistic texture, I lightly used a clay tool.

 
I used fabric paint for the frosting, because I didn't have any puffy paint in the right colors. I wasn't sure if the fabric paint would work, but it dried just fine.

 
Drying...
 
 
Finished!

Sculpey Adventures #2


Today we have another Sculpey adventure! The first items I made from the clay are these cute Christmas tree cookies. These will be great for December!

The 'dough' of the cookie is tan clay. The frosting is puffy paint, and the ornaments are dots of puffy paint. On one of the cookies the ornaments are tiny balls of green clay.

To cut out the shape of the cookies I used a small cookie cutter.

I also made a little pencil! It is made entirely of clay, although I intend to paint the point black or dark grey.
