Mermaid & Seashell Cookies for Isabella's Birthday Swim Party

Maria asked me to make a cake for Isabella's 6th Birthday as well as cookies, just like I did last year.  I had plans to be in New York that weekend so I unfortunately couldn't do the cake, but I was definitely on board for making some birthday cookies!  Maria handmade another AMAZING birthday invitation that I couldn't wait to turn into a decorated sugar cookie.  I was also excited to make the accompanying seashells and starfish that Maria requested.  Cole actually re-shaped star and muffin cookie cutters to make starfish and seashell cookie cutters.   He's so handy.  And handsome.

Here's a photo Vale snapped of me in the thick of piping seashell bras on the army of mermaids.

Maria wrapped them up herself in cellophane and ribbon!  Well, done!

Thanks, Maria for the cookie order and hope you had a wonderful party, Isabella!
