Football Fun

Since I began making cookies, I have done several for football fans.

Of course, we are Dallas Cowboy fans. Here are some of my Cowboy orders....

This was my first set of Cowboy cookies...a little rough

But they did get better :)

This was for a tailgating party for the Thanksgiving Day Cowboy game

These were for my little brother John and his family in Chicago. He is probably the biggest Bears fan EVER! ;) I am not very good at shipping so several of them broke on the way....and the Bears lost that game. Bummer....

I know..I know... but they were for an order.

Super bowl cookies for some friends who are big Saints fans. They even taught me what "Who Dat" meant. :)

OU cookies for Kolbe's science teacher Miss McRoy who is a big time OU fan. they had a OU/Texas party at school before the big game. Since we are TX Tech fans....we helped Miss M root for OU. I made these cookies for the party. :)

This was an order for a block party. This is the jersey for a local high school football team. I am not a very goo free hand artist, so these logos took forever. This was before I knew how to make RI transfers....now I can make logos much faster! :)

This order was favors for a friend's son's team party for his peewee league.

My favorite football is peewee football. My 9 year old has played 2 seasons for the city league. We just registered his for his 3rd season. He is moving up from the freshman level to the JV level. I LOVE football season!!He played for the Freshman Texans. Here are favors for his team homecoming...

My Favorite player!!  Brady #99!!

Happy Nurses Day

This order was for my son Brady's WONDERFUL school nurse.
Brady is a very rough little boy who plays hard. In the past 2 school years he has broken 2 bones. Both during recess at school. So, she know my child well. :) As tough as he is, when he is hurt EVERYONE knows. Lots of loud crying and screaming! ;)
I am thankful for Nurse Smith's calm patience with him. She takes such good care of all the kiddos at school.

I had fun making these because I used my new favorite cutter. I love using my favorite bright colors for these 3D cookies.



Happy Nurses Day to all the wonderful Nurses who take care of us!

Blue and Silver Stars

This order was for a High School Drill Team. I added extra sparkle. there is blue sanding sugar added on the blue icing. on the silver edges I added white sanding sugar to some and a course silver sugar to the others. I think I will start making my Dallas Cowboy stars like this on my football orders.

This order was for a little girl named Rachel who was turning 8. She had a ice skating party. Since I don't have a ice skate cutter yet, I had to get creative. I made these extra sparkley snowflakes. There is silver dust on the white and then white sanding sugar on the blue detail. I added some "8" shapes and added snowflake sprinkles.
Happy Birthday Rachel!

July 2009 I decided to see what it was like to make sugar cookies and decorate them with royal icing. I have made plenty of cookies, and I am even known by many as "the cookie lady", but I have never attempted to make cutout cookies and decorate them.
A friend of mine was bringing her husband to Texas to visit, his first time....so I thought I would make some Texas flags.
I am a researcher by nature so first I researched the best ways to make and use royal icing. then I looked up pictures of decorated Texas flag cookies for inspiration........what came next was a HUGE but somewhat FUN MESS! :) My inspirations were SweetSugarBelle  and Bake@350  
Here is a picture of my very first decorated cookies! (sorry...bad picture! )

I made the biggest mess and thought for sure I would never attempt to use that icing again....LOL

Bee-Day Cookies

This order was for a beautiful little girl for her first birthday. She had a Bumble Bee party and I was asked to match her custom invitation. These were very fun to make. I did several "3D" cookies by adding mini cookies onto larger ones. Happy Birthday Sweet Brooklyn!
