I couldn't just make a simple flower for
my cherry blossom contribution to the
I "needed" to make a whole set, ya know? ;)
I loved making the flowers.....
but I've always wanted to make a cherry blossom branch.
AND.....I LOVE gingham, so I wanted to do
something with gingham.
I did several sizes of blossoms.....
but other than the two 5 petal
cherry blossoms I did on circles,
the others are not correct
since they have 6 petals.
So please excuse my lack of
flower authenticity!
The branch was fun and relatively simple.
I did the gingham the hard way on this cookie....
piping squares in three different colors.
This is before I started experimenting
on doing it with airbrush.
And then I saw a tutorial on using color spray. : /
So I guess you won't be seeing a tutorial
from me on that subject.
But I definitely plan to do more gingham
since I love it so much. :)
Note: I originally put these cookies
on a bright green background.
EEEKKK! What was I thinking????
After a few days I came to my senses and
returned to a normal white background. :)
