Snowflakes, Snowflakes, Everywhere...

I was sooo excited to have the chance to use my new snowflake cookie cutter - and what do you know, my mom asked if I could make some cookies and she left the design up to me.  She ordered these cookies to hand out to their favorite Starbucks employees at the local store (which my step dad frequents daily).  What a nice gift to give out - I mean everyone likes cookies - and much more cost efficient than buying gifts for each person!

Sweet Savannah's Birthday

I've done a couple of orders already for Corey but these were by far the cutest!  She sent me a link to the blog http://www.hwtm.com/index.cfm?page=albums/view_album&albumid=206&photoid=4996 so that I could recreate some cookies from it.  I thought this theme was just precious!!!  PERFECT for a winter birthday!  So I did penguin cookies as favors and I also made some peppermint cookies that Corey could put out at the party for her guests to enjoy.  And to top it off, the peppermint cookies had a little peppermint flavoring in the icing. YUM!!  :)  Here's how they came out -

And look at these super cute tags that Corey picked out to have added to the bagged cookies.  They were super cute - and a great way to say "Thanks" to your guests for coming to the party.  I'm sure the rest of the party decor was just as precious!!

Transformers

Wow...I definitely realized that my boys must live in a very "Thomas the Tank" kind of bubble.  I had NO CLUE what Transformers looked like until I started looking for pictures.  Once again, this is something I'm sure my children will get into some day.  At least I have practice now!  Kristine, I hope you had a fabulous party for your sweet little 5 year old!

Christmas is Just Around the Corner!

Anyone counting down?  If not, here's the breakdown as of RIGHT now -
You have 31 sleeps, 2 hours, 37 minutes, and 36...no 35....no 34 seconds...I guess you get the idea huh?
Wow - this totally scares me when I sit back and realize how much needs to get done in the next month!

And if you haven't thought about the upcoming December events, start thinking soon....cookie exchanges (I mean no one has to know you didn't make them yourself...right?), work Christmas parties, family get-togethers, teacher gifts, presents for someone that has everything, and even something to leave out for Santa Clause himself.
And what better idea than to order COOKIES!!

Here are a couple of pictures of cookies that I created last year - but as always, feel free to give me any other ideas of something you have in mind.  I can more than likely create it for you!  I know coming up this month, I have penguin cookies, peppermint cookies, a princess cake, magician cupcakes, and a couple of Christmas orders to do.  I also have a new snowflake cutter that I am dying to use!

Don't miss out on your chance to order - I will only take 4 orders per weekend!

And as a side note, to order, I have a new email account set up JUST for cookies!  Please email any orders to creativecookiesNC@gmail.com.

Mickey Mouse Strikes Again!

I just love Mickey Mouse....I mean who doesn't???  And of course, it is the perfect theme for a super cute little 1 year old boy's party.  I know his Mommy worked super hard on making this the perfect party for him.  I hope that he enjoyed his party and getting to hang out with all of his family.

Happy 1st Birthday Brooks!

Gobble Gobble!

Looking for a cute Thanksgiving day treat to have out for the family?  Why not turkeys???  I made these for the St. John's Baptist Church bake sale/craft fair/chili cookoff night.  I think they turned out pretty cute!  And they were a "test run" for an order I have due next week.  Also, this is an example of the cookies if you prefer not to have the ribbon tied onto the bag.  For these, there is a sticker on the back holding the bag together with my website and info on it.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Thank you Levine Nurses!

I'm happy to say that FINALLY little Christopher is better.  He spent a couple of weeks in the Levine Children's Hospital at CMC while they did all kinds of tests, etc to see what was going on with the little man.  He was a trooper and is finally better!  As a thank you to the nurses, his mommy ordered cookies to sit at the nurses station.  Jackie requested flowers on the cookies so I made a variety of flowers on the mini cookies (I figured the more cookies, the better!).
