i've been a busy baker

Working on some special treats for the ladies attending the February Faithbooking Crop on Saturday. As I mentioned in my last post, I've had cookies on the brain.

They might not look like much right now...

But I have grand plans for these little buggers.

Months ago I was inspired by THESE delightful treats. (I will be attempting my own next Christmas.) Not only have I had cookies on the brain, I've had mug-toting cookies on the brain. I'm not one for baking (let alone creating notched cookie templates) so imagine my delight in finding these sweet ready-to-go cutters:

My early birthday present :) I'll be spending the next couple of days dressing them up a bit. And then I'll be back to share all of the colorful details with you!

  1. They look adorable already! I attempted something similar with Christmas cut-out this year and it just didn't quite work out for me. :( It looks like yours are going to be darling! Have fun!

  4. My lone box was through an eBay seller and includes a heart, star, sun & scallop. I found a like set here:

    It has a shamrock instead of the scallop.

    I also found these but didn't care for them as much:
