MICKEY MOUSE!!!!
Katie asked me to do Mickey Mouse favors for her daughter's birthday party. I said yes, but I did not share that I was TERRIFIED!!! (Sorry to admit it, Katie!)
Characters...kids love 'em. I panic at the thought of decorating a cookie like 'em. Seriously!!! Remember those Spongebob cupcakes and cookies? Yeah - stressed for weeks over those. Characters look a certain way - cartoon characters, especially! If the cookie artist (that would be me), even makes one small tweak, the character could look WAY OFF.
Anyway, I sucked it up and did them. I thought they came out fine...what do you think?
My son could spot this symbol on any
car antenna at the age of 18 months.
Sad, but true.
Okay - the ears.
Yes, those sideburns do look a little
Elvis-like.
Hey, who knew that Mickey and Elvis
had something in common?
I can find every single flaw in this,
BUT
I will not do that.
I did have a moment of accomplishment
that kept me going...
...long enough to finish all 15!
AND even throw in 2 Minnie's
for Katie's girls.
for Katie's girls.
Happy Birthday, Bella!
Thanks, Katie.
We are always our own harshest critic! They turned out amazing and I will quote my husband..."relax, it's only a cookie" he tells me that everytime i stress out about decorating ;)
ReplyDeleteYou shouldn't have given it a second thought...you totally nailed these cookies! Perfection! Doesn't it feel good to have the first ones under your belt...now you won't stress the next time someone asks for Mickey/Minnie!
ReplyDeleteI love looking at your creations, tfs!
