Ohhhh I'm so sorry that Linliv and Threemat haven't received their letters yet ....
I did make the cookies and haven't forgotten to bring them, but my daughter got very sick and ended up in an emergency room yesterday. Thanks God she's ok now
I will bring my cookies this afternoon...
Rosie2, hope you daughter is ok today! Can you believe I got my pk today! It was pretty beat up like it had been around the world! I notified them thru Ebay to let them know so maybe I caught them before they mailed another package!
Can't wait to see your pics!
Rosie2.......so glad your daughter is OK now!! Looking forward to seeing your cookies!
Linda.............I am soooooooo happy You finally got your Brigitte cutter today!!! The mail service here in the U.S. can leave a lot to be desired at times! I never did think the problem was with the shipping of your cutters, but did suspect a problem of some sort with the USPS!
Are they bent up or damaged? Are you going to be able to use it?
Hi Linliv46 and Teekakes...thank you both for your kind thoughts! we found out that my daughter has gullstones ...she will have surgery to remove them. Honestly thanks God it was only that!...when we were in the ER my mind was thinking all 'sort' of things...ahhh silly me!! Ok, thank you for listening and sorry for going off the subject...
I'm happy Linliv got her cutters!!! and BTW my package also arrived, kind of, beat up...
I'm still at work, but I'll come back to show my cookies.
Ohhh, I love these things! I had some fondant and just had to try it out and I am surprised at how well it works! Have a cake to do for my DD to take Fri to work & I might experiment since they are leaving part of it up too me! Exactly what I was waiting on!
Rosie2.............Those gallstones can cause unbelievable pain and I am sorry your daughter has these! My oldest daughter had them and consequently they had to remove her gallbladder. It was a fast surgery and she felt better coming out of the surgery than before she went in! I brought her home the same day she had the surgery too. She only missed 3 days of work! I'll say a prayer for you and your dd......do let us know how she does.
Linda............aren't they fun! So glad you have a cake to do and can do some of it any way you want to! Stamp away!!

Ahhh, thank you so much dear Teekakes! and OMG she was in so much pain that I was afraid there was something very wrong with her!! but, I will definitelly pass this on to her because she's terrified with the thought of surgery
Anyway, here are the cookies I made for the two weddings...I made about 20 cookies for each and I put them in those cute boxes I found at Joannes...I added some of that shredded red/white paper and stickers on top of the box. And I'm sorry that the pictures don't show the print really well, but believe me, in person you can read the messages...I put their names and the date of their wedding...so, far both the brides loved the cookies so much that they haven't eat them yet
Has anyone tried to put color/dye in the letters to print in different colors? I totally forgot to try that...
wondering if anyone has tried these on royal icing yet? I just ordered a set and would love to know! thanks
Rosie....Your cookies are gorgeous!!!!
Linda.........that cake is awesome! The way you stamped his name on the circles is really neat!
Linliv, I LOVE your cake! the name on the dotes is such a cool idea!!
Teekakes, thank you! I had fun doing them
Coll1114, I totally forgot to try royal icing when I was making the cookies, but I think it's possible...you would probably have to stamp the letters after royal icing dries a little but not completely.
Good luck!

I was wondering the same thing. I'm will be trying this over the weekend, & will let you know how it works.

Don't forget to 'show and tell' please
I haven't had time to practice, but soon I'll be making cookies for a co-worker's retirement party....I'll bring them soon.
Well, I just have to show off my cookies I made today with my tiny letters! These are just some practice cookies!
For a "princess birthday" later on!
Linda, those are beautiful!! I love your cookies your impression letters really stand out...did you notice mine looked so light. Maybe I was afraid to press too hard on the cookie for fear of breaking it
Hi there ladies. I think that the leather craft alphabet punches would work. What do you think?
Thanks Teekakes & Rosie for the nice comments! They were so much fun! I think you have to use quite a bit of pressure on the stamper but if you use too much you will get a line from the holder. Also. I tried to roll my fondant as thin as possible.
NikiBeautiful --I have never seen the leather stamps--- I would like to have a "bigger letters" set of these!
-- I would like to have a "bigger letters" set of these!
Ditto!!
I like this set, but I did not realize how small the letters were going to be.
I would like a bigger set also - so if anyone knows of some, please share.
Linliv46- My brother works with leather--only reason I thought about these, they come in various sizes and sell on eBay. Hope this helps.
Good grief I was wondering what happened to this thread... I haven't received an email notice in over a week!
I have found somewhere else that does the lettering a bit different but has a couple of different styles!!

Here's the link, i've just ordered mine, the first ones in the line, will let you know what they are like as soon as i get them!! x
Wow this is an old thread I almost read every page. AND I almost ordered those letters from the German store. But I think they are a little too small for me. Thought I'd share some cute impressions I found at Hobby Lobby. I found these in the clay area. They're plastic. I really like the font.

Here's another set of letters I found at Hobby Lobby in the clay section:
