I'm back with a very "electric" post.
I got my hands on Americolor's electric colors (electric purple, electric pink, electric orange, electric blue, electric green [my favorite at the moment], and electric yellow). Oh boy did I have fun. By now you must know how much I love lots of color. ;-)
First I thought you might want to see the tool bouquets put together. My sister was very happy with them.....and that made me happy.
My daughter, Allison, talked me into letting her have the extra "thank you" tag cookie since she is so deprived and never gets cookies anymore.......then my son, Keith, said very pitifully last night......"Are we ever going to get a bunch of your cookies at one time like we use to?" Those poor hungry, sweet-deprived teenagers. Ha ha......
Here's my bumble bees bagged up with cute yellow and black ribbons. :-)
Then I had to make some birthday cuppies for someone....so I used the ELECTRIC colors. Fun, fun. I loved how the colors matched many of the confetti stars I added to the top of the cuppies. :-)))))
Electric small flowers......
Electric daisies......
How about electric butterflies??.....here are my newest small and medium butterfly cutters.
Then I got this cool idea from SweetSugarBelles (Callye). She used a ladybug, so I changed it up and used a bumble bee. I'm going to have to try this again and make some better flowers.
Here's an assortment of all my ELECTRIC bugs and flowers. :-)))))))

I put the electric green on my 'pillars.....did I mention that I LOVE this green?

I made some frogs for a good friend. I didn't have a cutter so I hand cut these. That was my first time for hand cutting......and I need some serious help with that. Anyone want to offer advice on how to hand cut cookies????
I like how they turned out....nevertheless.
And finally.....my favorite cookie this go around......my ELECTIC VW bug cars. Hee hee hee. Aren't these fun? I got my inspiration from Karen's Cookies. Hers are so much better.....but I sure had fun trying.
I'm normally an early-to-bed kind of person.....but last night I was up until 11 PM doing cookies. My legs and feet hurt so bad. :-((((( The problem was that I had so many errands and taxiing jobs to do throughout yesterday.....so I didn't get started until 3 PM, and then got interrupted several times. THANKFULLY, my son, Kyle, got his license today so hopefully I won't be doing near the taxiing jobs. :-) We only have ONE teenager left to get her license.....hopefully in September.
I thought it funny that I'm talking about driving right below the car pics and it wasn't intentional at all.....
