How sweet is the name Oliver Watson K, it just warms your heart, and if you could see the little guy your heart would be even warmer, he is a cutie!
This is one of those sets that got me really excited because I finally had a chance to make a chalkboard cookie......and I got to use my super cool new contraption for tracing difficult designs (more about that in a later post)
When I was commissioned for the set I was asked to make cookies to match with a chevron, chalkboard and teal themed baby shower highlighting the baby's name. From there I had creative freedom to come up with whatever I wanted.
I opted to airbrush a few chevron cookies, do a K cookie to match a beautiful metallic K they displayed at the baby shower and the highlight of the whole set was a chalkboard cookie that matched the birth announcements.
This set allowed me to use a few techniques that I normally don't get to try out, like making my own K transfers and using (non homemade) stencils to airbrush patterns on a cookie.
My all time favorite cookie of this set was the chalkboard cookie. I was really excited about this one not only because I had the chance to finally make a chalkboard cookie but I also go the chance to use my Camera-Lucida app on my tablet and the new cool holder my hubby made for me so I could finally use the app. I will do a nice write up about Camera-Lucida and how to make a stand for it some time soon. For those of you like me who don't have a kopycake it is a great way to keep things consistent on cookies. If you are itching to know more go and check

Stay sweet everyone!
