On the Eleventh Day of Cookie Christmas...

Sweet Sarah gave to me, Eleven Cheerful Cardinals...

These were for the annual William Jewell ~ Alpha Gamma Delta ornament exchange.  I thought they we appropriate because the Jewell mascot is a cardinal, and I couldn't muster up the squirrel with a wreath that I really wanted to do.  I LOVE red and white together... so I included some snowflakes too.

This fun cookie was the hostess gift for my dear friend, Mary Catherine.  She sent me a postcard like this from the U.K. with a container of my favorite British "Biscuits" after I found out I was pregnant with my third child... What a blessing that I will never forget.  I still have the postcard, and used it to create yummy "Thank you!"

I also was really happy with these red and white ornaments, too.  They were also inspired by my Isaiah Bible Study, and were a gift to the leaders of that study.


“Come now, let us reason together, says the LORD:
though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow;
though they are red like crimson, they shall become like wool."

Isaiah 1:18
Merry Cookie Christmas!

On the Fifth Day of Cookie Christmas...

Sweet Sarah gave to me, Handel's "Messiah..."

I got this idea from Laura's Cookies. 
Thanks, Laura for sharing yoru great ideas so graciously!
 (I made this single cookie day FIVE because I think I ate four mistake cookies in the creation of this one final cookie...)  Actually, it was a special extra cookie for my friend Diane with her Christmas order.  Thank you for your encouragement, Diane!

Her response: "You did an awesome job for me Sarah! Especially loved the cookie with the musical staff and notes from the Halleluiah chorus on it." ~ Diane

But, since we are on Day 5... how about stockings for my "five" family (as my almost 4 year-old calls us).


 
And five light bulbs and a couple of funny reindeer.



Merry Cookie Christmas!

On the Fourth Day of Cookie Christmas...

Sweet Sarah gave to me, four vintage ornaments...

Signature Sugar Cookies with Sanding Sugar for sparkle.

All dressed up and ready to PARTY!

I made these for Gina's Small Group Ornament Exchange. 
Thank you for your order, Gina!



I also couldn't help but think that the frosting was "Tiffany's" color,
so I made this little gift for myself! ;^)

Merry Cookie Christmas!
