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.
beautiful!! Chocolate covered graham cracker also popped into my head for this design .. very elegant!!!
Thanks pikle. Great idea!
Anyone else have any opinions? All critiques/comments are welcome!
You could use that design and adapt the colors of any wedding. I love it! It's going into my fav's!
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!
That is really nice. That can be more your "manly" style cookie for like a grooms dessert table at a wedding or something. Its not too fru-fru or anything. Very classic
Very nice. Can I ask how you get those lines so straight? Just starting with this stuff
Also wondering
chqtpi where you are located. I am also upstate, 40 minutes east of albany
Toleshed:
I am 45 minutes southeast of Syracuse...Fingerlakes area one of my very good friends lives in your neck of the woods
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
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

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.

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?
