My daughter used a toothpick to swirl the red and orange icing together to make these cute leaves.
A collection of cookies that I have found on the internet that inspire me to continue creating my own cookies.

Eye Ball Cookies
These cookies were kinda fun to make. I have wanted to try them for a year now, but seem to forget. This time I made it a point to make round cookies. The kids loved them! That is all that matters.

Star Cookie for 4th of July
I haven't baked a lot of cookies this summer. It is just too warm to be in the kitchen. I almost didn't make these cookies for our 4th of July party because I had cupcakes on the menu. A few people asked if I was going to make them, so I decided to make a few.
These stars were so easy to make. I iced them with white and then added red and blue polka dots and used a toothpick to turn them into hearts. I had been inspired by Whipped Bakeshop's cookies on Flickr, though I did them a little different. Sometimes simple is fun!!

Baseball Cookie
Our summer baseball season has ended. I wanted to add a little bit of variety to the cookies design this time, so I made the curved lines on some of the balls. I think it added a little bit of variety to the simple designs of a baseball, but I still like the simple ones the best.

Palm Tree Cookies
These cookies were for a summer party. I could definitely have done a lot more with them, but my time was limited and they were just accent cookies. The hardest part about making them was getting them to the baking tray straight. As you can see, some of them are leaning quite a bit. It adds a bit of variety I guess.

Flip Flop Cookies
I made these cookies recently, but didn't have the flip cutter. I basically used a foot cutter and then cut it out to look more like a flip flop. The polka dots are made when the icing is still wet, so they are sunk into the base coat. Then I used a small rose tip to make the purple straps.
I love how these turned out. I'll have to get the cutter someday.

Ice Cream Cone Cookies
These are one of my favorite cookies I have made to this point. They are simple and fun. I have had this cutter for months now and it had just been collecting dust. I am glad I finally had a reason to use them. I don't usually use a lot of embellishments on my cookies, but who can resist with ice cream cones. I hope to make these again soon for my kids, in our favorite ice cream flavors.

Casino Cookies
These cookies were made for a person who loves gambling at the casino. I was asked to make the different suits first and just kept adding the other designs. Next time I would definitely make the poker chips in blue and green to add color, but I loved making these cookies.
I also had to ship these cookies, so maybe that will be a post to come soon. How to package cookies for shipping. Not one of the cookies broke I was told.

Farm Animal Cookies
I made these recently for a group of kids visiting a farm. I was very pleased with how they turned out. My favorite has to be the cows.
