CookieCrazie's Week in Review

_________________________________________________

Personal Side

It was a great cookie week.

I got to try out several new techniques on autumn cookies.

Yep......I went there.

I'm even going to do some more fall cookies this next week.

The next few months are filling up with some really exciting opportunities.

I can't believe the things I'm being allowed to do.

 

This week I did an interview that could pan out to be a super exciting adventure.

We'll see......(that's a popular phrase for us while we are in Ukraine. haha)

June is nearly done.

Oh how the time flies.

I'm sure it doesn't help when I hurry the seasons by doing cookies ahead. ;)

This set was so fun to make.

#fathersday #dad

Something I've wanted to try for a long time....

Happy Fathers Day!
Wishing Dads a wonderful day celebrating YOU!

Ummmmmm.....yes please!
Stay cool on this warm Tuesday. :)

Personal Side

Last weekend was awesome.....spending time with my kids is always the best!

We thoroughly enjoyed catching up, playing games, shopping, and eating lots of good food.

It's always hard to say goodbye......but then I remember how wonderful my "day job" is.

So.....Monday morning was back to cookies.

This week involved lots of experimenting again.

I did some mixed media....which I love how it can personalize it to fit the decorator's favorites.

And then I did a bunch of experiments with edible clay.

Boy, there is so much more I can do with texture when I involve the clay. 

I LOVE working with it!

Now I'm already entering the world of autumn.

Today I'm baking autumn cookies....and will dive in tomorrow.

Oh how I love fall.

I know, I know......summer just started.

But I can enjoy the current season while I take cookies into the next season. :)

♥♥♥

Happy Friday!

What is it about lemons that shout s.u.m.m.e.r and h.a.p.p.y?
I guess it's a nostalgic thing.

Just three weekends away....

Happy Tuesday!

Rustic Wood Planks technique works with glaze too!!
Happy day. :)
Thanks for the tutorial, Ginny.

Last year's Fathers Day cookies....
Obviously I'm on a vintage kick when it comes to this holiday. ;)

Vintage Fathers Day 2014 Cookie Collection

Oh the fun of making vintage Fathers Day cookies.....these were a blast!

The airbrush was extremely helpful in giving all of them that "aged" vintage-y look. :)

These Helvetica alphabet cutters are the BEST!

My favorites...... (I adore that bus cutter......I've used it many times now.)

Personal Side

We're off to a family reunion with my in-laws in TN/MS this weekend.

Lots of driving......but it's fun to see everyone.

I'm taking some fall cookies to be enjoyed.

I lectured myself (in my head) again and again to make them simple.

I have a super hard time making simple cookies.

I always want to add a few more details. haha

But all in all......I think I did OK with the whole simple concept.

Next week I'm doing a fun project for an event at church the following weekend.

I may build a whole theme around one cookie.

Hee hee.....I don't have to keep it simple next week. ;)

Instagram photos for this week:

Haha..... The other side of the room during today's photo shoot.

I manage to reek havoc all over the house to get "just the right shots"

and then there's lots of aftermath clean-up. ;)

Oh....the fall "quilting" done this week. :)

Here's one of the fall quilt sets from last week.

I love all those warm colors!!!

OK....bring on the cool crisp weather and all the beauty of the season. :)

A favorite autumn set from last year..... :)

Here's a sideview of the little cuties going to our family reunion this weekend. :)

Mustaches and bow ties are so big right now for baby boy showers.
