Jungle Safari Baby Shower Cookies!
When we left off, I had a jillion sports-themed baby shower cookies ready to go...
then I heard about a little switch up in theme.
These gals found super cute decorations and plates they couldn't pass up....
animal print baby shower decorations and plates.
Huh.
I needed to incorporate jungle themed safari print cookies.
Admittedly, Katie was thrilled with all the sports cookies and didn't want me to change a thing.
But....I couldn't help myself.
They all worked pretty well together!
I had never made leopard cookies before, but I knew some really great ladies that had.
It was time to Google some tutorials!
I love Sweet Ambs video tutorials.
I watched her leopard print video a few times before tackling these.
So fun!
I love wet-on-wet designs for cookies.
So that took care of leopard...but the plates were half zebra too.
One of the very first tutorials I ever watched was for Sugarbelle's zebra cookies.
Before that, I had no idea there were cookie ladies out there
who showed you how to make cute cookies and wrote blogs with lots of pictures!
Way back when I made zebra print flip-flops...
But not this time!
*pssst*
Sugarbelle also has leopard tutorials,
one of which is for lingerie cookies with leopard details.
But that would have been more of a
"Here's how you got yourself into this situation" baby shower.
Adding one more theme would have done me in.
So this little tale has a moral.
Lots of themes which seemingly don't work well together...CAN!
Just change up your colors!
Katie said the shower was lots of fun and the Mama-To-Be loved everything!
YAY!!!
I promise that's it for baby cookies for awhile....
I have a few more but I'll save them for later.
It's Halloween time!!!!
The rattles slay me. SO adorable!
ReplyDeleteYou're a trooper! What an awesome set. The rattles are my favorites:)
ReplyDeleteyou are such a cookie rock star my friend. Love the onesies xox
ReplyDeleteoh MAN i would have had a heart attack!! glad you were able to mesh the two together, and they turned out absolutely adorable!
ReplyDeleteThese are awesome! I had the same thing happen to me with I think the SAME plates! I was told a fun cutesy animal safari theme and specifically asked about animal print and we told no. Designed the whole set and they came back with this blue/black/white leopard and zebra print! Those plates must have sold out quick!! :)
ReplyDeleteYou're cookies are so lovely - great work!
