Thank you, globalgatherings! You are very sweet. I try to do my best and I aspire to someday make gorgeous cookies like so many of the artists here on CC, so I definitely appreciate your encouragement.

By the way I love your lightbulb cookies. I'm just waiting for a chance to make some for my hubby!

Thanks,
Kathi

Thanx GeminiRj, I'm about to go and order some more cutters from ecrandal. Can't wait to hang them up. Wait, that's just weird, I like looking at them more than using them icon_redface.gif Susan, are welcome to use any of my cutters whenever you want thumbs_up.gif

icon_biggrin.gif I can relate. I use bright red ribbon to hang my copper Christmas/Winter cutters from garland in the kitchen at the holidays. I also place others atop door and window frames in the kitchen area.

I get ideas from sheets, pillow cases and blankets! I got a blanket for Christmas one year that had great designs for bulbs. I also get ideas when looking at shoes or clothes, or even from cakes. I like to see if I can do the cake design on a smaller scale ... princess.gif

I once bought a store gift card for my parents and spent quite a bit of time choosing which of the numerous cards had the best design for making into a cookie! I, naturally, copied down the design before mailing off the gift card!

2 things;
We recently bought a piece of furniture and the box it came in had the most beautiful font inside a damask type frame. I told my husband to cut that piece out of the cardboard box for me and he looked at me like i was crazy!

Also, i was at the store looking for a small area rug and actually chose one because i liked the design for a cookie. Weird.

I love cookies, finding/creating designs, cookie cutters, and since I am a fondant gal, all the wonderful mats and molds and patchwork cutters and any other toy you can name, has to be mine icon_lol.gif

linedancer, i was just looking at your edible image rectangle cookies and they are just beautiful. Do you use an airbrush for the borders or just brush on diluted luster dust. They are just too perfect to eat!

Thanks,luv2bake6 the luster dust is just brushed on, dry. I don't own an air brush. I find that it is easier to brush the dust on the edges of the cookie, you don't have to cover where the edible image is going to be. Then place your edible image and I usually do some kind of embossing around the edge. This keeps most of the luster dust off the ei.

I just made some cookies, using this method, for my Mother. They are for a luncheon for the sewing ladies of her church. It has an ei of a Singer sewing machine, I will up load a pic of them as soon as I have time.
