Keeping schedules and time management have never been my strong suit. Case in point this post. I was supposed to post these stenciled Valentines cookies last week but it didn’t happen. So as the saying goes better late than never.
This set is a tribute to my relationship with my husband. We recently celebrated ten years together and four years of marriage. When I met him we were living in two different cities three hours away from each other. We did the long distance thing for awhile but eventually we knew that one of us was going to have to move. I decided to take a leap of faith and leave my job and friends to pursue a relationship with him. All that mattered to me was that boy loved this girl. The rest is history.
I decided to revisit airbrushing with stencils on cookies. You can see my first attempt here and my next attempt here. I think I’ve come a long way and have finally found a technique that works for me. I like airbrushing with sheen colors. I just think they look nicer.
It’s been forever and a day since I recorded a video so I thought the best way for you to see how I like to airbrush with stencils and sheen colors is to show you.
If you are interested in the stencils I used for this project you can find them at The Cookie Countess’s shop on Etsy.
Wishing y’all a happy Valentine’s Day! Hope you have a wonderful day with your special someone.

Great job! I can’t believe that you don’t anchor the stencil down in any way…it doesn’t “lift” while spraying?! I have tried a few different ways…and I still suck! I spray on the lowest setting, try to get pretty close, but no matter what I do…I still don’t get a good clear image! Arghhhhh!

Love it! Your stenciled lines are so clean and crisp! Your thumb? That is how you remove the stencil? Amazing! I will have to give it a try sometime.

Thanks for the video! You make it look so effortless and they turned out perfect! What pressure do you usually spray at? Im usually around 20-30 and my stencils get blurry and oversprayed looking.
Really fun video! I loved getting the visual. Also, I tend not to love airbrushing on cookies, but your approach with colors that have sheen. They look really pretty!
