I love to make cookies for special occasions. My employers (husband & wife chiropractor team) just celebrated the arrival of their second baby girl. What a joy to surprise them with special cookies made specifically for Emerson's birth day.
This is what cookie decorating is all about.....

Textured cookie dough is an awesome way to add dimension to cookies with very little effort. Now you can even add a little color and/or some sparkle to the beautiful texture.
As shown in previous blog posts, you only have to roll a texture mat directly into the dough in order to mold a texture into it.

Once the cookies are baked and cooled, you can add a little color by using "watered-down" color gel. For these particular cookies, I used my "water colors" made from The Painted Box's methods. Check out her YouTube video HERE.
Add a drop or two of color to your palette and then brush it onto the textured cookie. Easy!
To add sparkle, brush on some dry SugarArt sterling pearl dust (Brilliant Sparkle used on these cookies).
Beautiful and yet so simple.....
