Pretty Creative for Clare!


I always feel left out of the creative loop. I don't stamp, scrapbook, decorate or bake. So last week I was feeling a little overwhelmed when I needed to provide a favor for a baby shower I was helping to host. However, with a little help from my mom and sister (they are the best!) I came up with these. I thought they were terribly cute-and yes, I made the sugar cookies (or rather baked them, but rolling out that pre-made dough can be pretty tricky!). The guest of honor was thrilled. The "E" was for Ezekiel, the baby's name, and on the back I put a custom label with his name, date of birth, and a scripture reference. All in all I was pretty pleased with my handywork. And plenty tired, 25 "cookie pops" later!

  1. Cute! Now that leaves me being the only non-creative, inept one. Oh well, I am used to it. The cookie pops were adorable. Now about those tips for me on cleaning my house.

  2. What an adorable idea! How can you say you're not creative. Also, just remember you come from a brilliant family so how could you not also be brilliant and creative! : )

    p.s. Are the dots that make the letter made out of frosting?

  3. No, they are actually sprinkles that Josie picked out. I was going to use M & M 's but these fit my theme better. I think she did a good job!

  4. Drooling over the thought of such pretty yummies puts my diet in serious jeopardy! Any leftovers?
