Quick catch up!

Ok, so here I am quickly catching up on some of the big things that have been happening!

I told you in the last post that I would fill you in on how the Easter Cookie Swap came about. It was getting close to Easter and after feeling very left out watching all the American Cookie Swaps I put a call out on Precious Pie Cookies Facebook page asking if any Australian cookiers would be interested in an Easter Cookie Swap. I had immediate interest from Beck at Becca's Biscuits who reshared my post to her wall and had immediate interest from Traci at Cookie Queen Kitsch'n.

Between the three of us we decided the best course of action was to start a page where all Australian cookiers could gather, meet and share. So we started Australian Cookiers United and from this page we ran the Cookie Swap and were excited to have plenty of interest! If you want to see what everybody created head on over and take a look. Feel free to join in the fun while you are there :) There is currently a TV Cookie Challenge going on with some great prizes up for grabs, all the details are on the page and it is open to ANYBODY!

Here are my cookies sent out to my two swappers.









Next was ANZAC day. I collaborated with the lovely Maree of The Old Fashioned Baking Company to create this lovely package to commemorate ANZAC Day.











LEST WE FORGET!

I loved this pack and it was an honor to create it!


I also created two dessert tables with my bestest friend Lauren from Happy Little Cupcake. Check out her blogpost here to see all the deliciousness!
Anyway, I'll finish up the boringness (it's absolutely a word!) and hope to see you drop by our Australian Cookiers United page :)

I'M BACK!

Ok, so I know it has been a REALLY long time but I have been so caught up in cookies that the blog went straight out the window! I promise to try and be better though :) Honest!

Seeings as it's Easter and all I'm going to share this years Easter creations. Easter is very exciting for me this year as it marks 1 year since my first cookie decorating attempt and I am proud to say that I have come a long way!

Anyway enough of the blibber blabber .. we want to see cookies right?

This is my blue antique/vintage Easter cookie collection.

















And if your going to make blue then it goes without saying that you have to do pink, right?



















And then, of course, you need a little bright cookie love.
























But what I am most excited about is the Easter cookie swap I was a part of this year. More on that in the next post but I will give you a little peek at what I created to send out to my swappers :)


















and this













Well I hope you enjoyed my little Easter cookie feast. I'm off now, it's nap time at our house and after a VERY long week cookie-ing I could use one :)

Have a safe and happy Easter everybody!
