Homespun Christmas Tree Cookie


At Cookie Con, there were lots of fun treats from our sponsors.

One of the best was a brand new cutter from Karen's cookies!

Pam from Cookie Crazie designed it and they made it just for her!

(you can buy one HERE)

Then Miss Pam asked me (and a whole bunch of other cookie ladies)
 to join her in a little cookie decorating project!
Of course I said yes!
We could use our new Homespun cookie cutter anyway we liked!
So I made these!


They're all sparkly!!!






There's a silver cookie (light grey icing sprayed with Duff silver food spray) 
with a red tree and white pearl ornaments....
...and a silver cookie with a white tree and red pearl ornaments!
Then I got a little crazy with the spray and turned some white sugar pearls silver!
ooooooooooooo... pretty!
So I made a white cookie with a red tree, just so I could use those little silver pearls.
I can't wait to see what everyone else makes!
Oh, right!
No more waiting....here are all the cookies!
1 Ali – Ali Bee’s Bake Shop
2 CeCe – Tactical Baker
3 Laurie – Cookie Bliss
4 Andrea – Cupookie
5 Christine – Sugar Cravings
6 Heather – Sugar Nosh Treats

8 Penny – Grammie’s Cookies N Goodies

14 Tricia – The Cookie Loft Girls
15 Elizabeth – Lizy B Bakes
16 Stephanie – Ice My Biscuit

Miss Pam's not on that list!!!
If you don't know Pam...she's the wonderful lady behind Cookie Crazie.
She bakes beautiful cookies decorated with glaze and 
donates all her profits to her mission work in the Ukraine.
Her cookies are as beautiful as her smile and her spirit, 
I hope you'll stop by her blog and read all about her amazing work!
Thanks for stopping by! Lizy B

    You inspired me - I bought the cookie cutter today (just $2) and got some silver spray as well. I love your modern take on the tree. It seems fitting with the cut of the tree. Next Christmas I'll be giving these out as gifts! Thanks - you have new follower . . .

      It's a year later, and I just wanted thank you for this idea. I did make them for every teacher (I have 4 sons) including PE, Art, Music, secretary, principal, custodians, etc. They made beautiful gifts. Happy New Year!
