I have no idea what is up with Facebook today, but I cannot post on any of my pages.  Oh well, it is what it is, I guess.  I was looking up images on the web for design ideas for another Day of the Dead Skulls and came across a very large gingerbread cookie.  I was immediately in love with it, so I went in search of the original. Cupookie is the awesome decorator of this very large gingerbread.  I figured I could do something similar, sort of, so I came up with a super easy version for a mini ginger bread man. 

Thanks for stopping!

isn't this just awesome!  Thanks Cupookie for sharing!!

This order goes to a dentist office, I hope they do not mind the blood.  :)  I have to say, I really enjoy decorating the Skulls.  So fun!  I want to give a shout out to SweetSugarbelle for the great idea for the lips and teeth.  I love her designs.  Well it looks like the laundry is not going to do itself AGAIN, how ruude. So I am off to attack the mounds.  I hope your Saturday is a good one!

I love all the Day of the Dead Skull Cookies out there in cookie internet land and have considered trying them numerous times, but always chickened out.  Well not this year, and let me tell you, they were FUN!  The more I decorated, the more I wanted to decorate.  I will definitely be doing more of these skulls this Halloween. 

With them came masks, same thing, see lots of awesome designs.  I actually sketched out a design, but by the time I got to the masks, I was running out of time, so I did the most simple thing I could think of, vines with dots.  I actually like how they look. 

These were more practice cookies, I LOVE what Jill FCS did with her leaves. Go look, they are amazing (click here).  See, I told you.  So, I want to create a platter for a local business, adding acorns and a large center cookie with the company logo on it and I thought leaves would be very pretty.  The company logo has blue, browns and white.  But I am VERY nervous about this project (more to come on that later) so I need to practice, I want to get it exactly as is the image in my head.  I do know I will not be sprinkling the bronze luster dust onto the wet icing.  I like the look of applying it after it has dried, so please ignore the smudgies.

I have to say, I love this color combination.

Well, thanks for stopping, have a great night.  Next up Dentist themed cookies and more practice cookies. 

I dedicate these baby onsies to President Obama, Speaker Boehner, Congressmen, Congresswomen and Senators.  Keep it up and the American people will remove you from the play group, place a onsie on you and put you to bed, in other words, WON'T VOTE FOR YOU EVER AGAIN!!!
