Easter Eggs & Sheep Cookies

I'm not a big holiday person. Maybe it's because I was born on Thanksgiving day. I don't know what it is but when holidays roll around I really don't get too excited about them. When I became obsessed with cookie decorating this mindset started to change a bit. How can you not like holidays when you decorate cookies? Some of the best cookie designs I've seen are done for holidays.

This year I'm working on an Easter project which I will reveal on Saturday if all goes as planned. The first designs I have to show you are Easter eggs and sheep.
The egg with the flowers was made using the wet on wet technique which I demonstrated in my last post. The other eggs are also a wet on wet technique called marbling. Sweetopia has a great video on marbling here.
Look at these little sheep. I love them! I decided that my sheep needed to be festive so I decorated them in spring/Easter colors. After I made them I thought these would be great for baby showers. I purchased the cutter at Copper Gifts. It is designed by SweetDaniB who was my inspiration for the design. Who better to model the design after than the creator of the cutter? You can watch her decorate a sheep here.

Thanks for stopping by. Stay tuned for more cookies.

  1. These turned out great. I love the floral egg and those sheep. Sometimes I add to much icing with the wet-on-wet technique and it's such a mess. I need to make some Easter cookies already!
