There's something so quaint and rustic about cute little picket fences. And I love them in an autumn scene. So when I found this adorable fence cookie cutter, I was anxious to create some fall cookie collections with it. :)
As I'm always trying to make cookie designs as 3D as possible, here's a way to give these fences dimension. (see photos and video)
Cut a second thin cut-out of the fence and trim the vertical planks as shown and lay them across the base fence cut-out to make the fence planks stand out.
Use a small rectangle cutter (I used the smallest cutter in this set) to trim in between each plank in the appropriate spots (see video).
Outline and flood the vertical planks and then each in-between horizontal plank (see video) with white glaze.
Allow the fences to dry overnight.
Brush the planks and creases with dry gray dust for shadowing.
Build a little autumn scene with mini pumpkins, leaves, acorns and even a rake cookie.
