What do you all think about this cookie design for a "sophisticated" look? Maybe a birthday or an anniversary? (Click on the image and it will get slightly bigger.)
I visited Papyrus (an amazing card store with high-end cards, stationary, wrapping paper, invitations, etc.) today and these colors seemed to be everywhere. Thanks for your help.
I think it would make an awesome cookie. I can see a wedding cake too, lol.
love the design and the colors. you could also swap out the monogram for a simple design...heart, flower, number...the possibilities are endless

I'm working on one now for Mother's Day in pinks where I swapped out the initial for the word "Mom" and added a few little flowers. I will try to post it later.
I will hopefully be making some prototype cookies by next week. I'll post pics when they are done.
Thanks to all for your comments and suggestions--they are very much appreciated! ![]()
i'll have to try some this weekend with different colors and swap out the design just for fun(like i have tons of free time). but i love this design and the possibilities
Very nice. Can I ask how you get those lines so straight? Just starting with this stuff
I'm not sure if I understand your question. Are you asking me how I get the lines straight in the design? This is just a "drawing" I did with MS Word. If you mean on the actual cookie, I plan to use fondant for the stripes, so getting them straight would mean first cutting them straight and then letting them dry a bit before I attach it to the cookie. I hope my answer helps you. ![]()
I love it. Very elegant. My question for you is...how did you design it? I'd love to make my own monograms like that.
Thanks,
Kim
Kim--
I used MS Word to design the cookie. I used to have MS publisher and it was a lot easier, but it can be done in Word. You have to use the Drawing tool bar and play around with the different functions.
I think it would also look lovely if you did the background in RBC and that way you could stamp the monogram and even the little design underneath it- give it a little more dimension. Or how about stamp it in , and then paint it with some liquid dust? That would add a little sheen to the monogram...very pretty! You could also use some sugarveil or chocolate to create really fancy and uniform monograms! ![]()

Thanks for the great suggestions cakesonoccasion! I was actually going to use chocolate candy clay for the background. And I had thought about stamping the scroll/design and painting it. great minds think alike! ![]()
By the way, I am not very familiar with Sugarveil--is it fun/easy/satisfying to use?
