He Is Risen Cookies

Spring is here and with Spring come EASTER!

I wanted to share some quick cookies I made today, using the wonderful stencils from Simply Sweet Stencils.

For many, Easter means Bunnies and Eggs, while those are fun, the most important thing about Easter is...

He is not here, for he is risen, as he said.  Come, see the place where the Lord Lay.

Matthew 28:6                                

I used a large egg cookie cutter, and base coated it white, after it was completely dry, I use the

Sunburst Stencil and yellow to air brush  the sunburst pattern on the cookie, off setting it to the lower part of the cookie.  Once that was dry, using a light purple stiff Royal Icing, and the He Is Risen Stencil , I applied the He is Risen image.  While it does seem like many steps and complicated, I promise you, these were some of the easiest cookies I have done.

If you have not tried stencils, I encourage you to do so, whether you use air brush or Royal Icing, the outcomes is wonderful!  Simply Sweet Stencils is a great place to purchase stencils, she has unique patterns and the quality is second to none.
