Color Inspiration

While perusing on Etsy the other day...

I stumbled upon these pretties

 from Sweeties by Kim

(who by the way is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G)

and I just love the colors...

In fact while I was out this weekend
I found more items in this color scheme...

I have ideas swirling for a sugar cookie...
And then while on Pinterest...
Look what jumped out at me...

Hmmm...whales look really sweet in these colors...

That's not what I was thinking cookie wise...
but I may have to reconsider...

Seashell Cookies

My nautical anchors have, by far, been my

most popular cookies...

So I though I'd add to the ocean theme

with some fabulous seashells...

Gorgeous hand embroidery with icing

and lots of luster dust for shine...

Perfect for that destination wedding

that is taking place on an exotic island

or a beautiful beach...

or what about a gift for your hotel guests...

Which ever you choose...your guests are sure to enjoy!

Pink Martini Cookies

Since the Hub was out of town this weekend...

I had some extra time to make some new cookies...

I just love their sparkle & shine...

I couldn't decide between the rim done in sparkle dust...

(Goosie Girl liked this one)

or the rim in sanding sugar...

(This was my fave)

So how about both together...

Wouldn't these be the sweetest addition

to a happy hour...

a bachelorette party...

a cocktail party...

or just a girls night out...

Cheers!

Sweet Friday - The Oscars

You know the Oscars is this weekend...

Will you be attending an Oscar party?

Or might you enjoy it in the comforts of your own home?

My favorite part is the Red Carpet...

What about you?
Enjoy!

Perfect Pair Twins Party

I spied this magnificent party

on Bump Smitten designed and styled

by the fabulous Jordan of Polka Dot Prints...

(I have been a follower of hers for a long time)...

And as much as I love dessert tables

(and I have styled my fair share)...

I'm starting to wean myself away from them...

I much prefer this set up...

where everything is beautifully laid out on one table...

Who needs all those sweets anyway?

I'd much rather have at least an equal amount 
of both savory & sweet...

Every detail of this party has been executed to perfection...

right down to the menu cards...

The vintage drink table has me swooning with the baby's breath
and along side the perfect packaged favors...

What a FABULOUS party!

Lego Cookies

I can remember playing with Legos

when I was growing up...

It's hard to believe they are still popular today...

They have definitely stood the test of time...

But what's not to love?

A good friend asked me to make these for a birthday party

she is having for her grandson...

He lives in Pennsylvania but spends time in the summers with her...

So she is flying him down, taking him to Legoland

and then surprising him with a birthday party 

with all his "Florida" friends...

Amazing, huh?!

Each favor has 1 big, 1 medium and 1 small lego cookie

nestled in cello and tied with a bow...

The rest will be plated for the guests to munch on...

Thanks for letting Goosie Girl be a part

of your special weekend!

Enjoy and Have Fun!

Tuesday's Thoughts

Drats...

It's already time to go back to school...

But I don't want to go...

I had such a nice, relaxing weekend

and even was able to get much accomplished...

Just another day...

Please!

President's Day

Happy President's Day!

It's so nice to be off...isn't it?!

Let's take a moment to be thankful

with these festives...
One nation under God...

I wouldn't mind prancing around in this pretty...

or jumping in some puddles with these...

and of course partaking in this yummy dessert...

Whatever it is...Enjoy!

Sweet Friday - "Sweets" Cookies

I was asked to make these "sweets" 

as a bridal shower gift

to coordinate with the invitation...

She also wanted to incorporate

their to-be monogram too...

Happy Friday!

Anchor's Away (Pretty Navy & Pink Cookies)

I sent these pretties out on Monday

to Connecticut...

A lovely bride-to-be contacted me

and asked if I could make these anchor cookies

(in her color scheme...navy & fuschia...)

to use as favors for her upcoming wedding...

Why of course!

Goosie Girl loves weddings!

Thank you for allowing Goosie Girl 

to be part of your special day!

Happy Valentine's Day

Well...Happy Hearts Day!

I made these Valentine pretties to take to lunch today

to share with my favorite team...

I used Glorious Treats yummy vanilla cupcake

and vanilla cream cheese frosting recipe...

So easy and so good...

And then thanks to Sweetopia's brilliant idea...

using up left over royal icing from this past weekend...

I made these sparkly hearts to use as toppers...

So fun & festive!

I hope your day is filled with love & sweet treats!

Sweet Friday

Oh Happy Friday!

What's on your agenda this weekend?

Anchors (like these)...to be used as wedding favors...
done up in navy & fuschia...
(love that color combo!)

I will post pics next week...
Enjoy!

Valentine Cookies With A Nautical Twist

These valentines were made

with a bit of a nautical twist...

Why, you ask?

Well...they have two purposes...

Of course to remind the recipient they are loved

since it's Valentine's Day...

and two...to remind them of their upcoming

Disney Cruise...

Fun, huh?!

you may recall that she announced 

that they were going on a Disney Cruise with these...

Thank you for letting Goosie Girl be a part

of your celebration!

Valentine Mini Cookies

A very good client of mine

asked if I could create 

some mini valentine cookies (2 inchers)

for a party she was having for the kiddos...

I incorporated all the colors she was using...

red...pink...aqua...and brown...

Each getting their own unique look...

My favorite is the pink & white stripes...

What's yours?
