Hello July!  Wow, it's crazy that half the year is over already.  When I'm not working on special cookie creations for others, I like to work on some of my own cookie projects.  I have a VERY long list of personal cookie projects.  One of the big ones on my list is unicorns - all kinds of different unicorns.

So for July, I'm doing what I'm calling the Unicorn Project.  I'm going to make a different unicorn for each day in July and maybe a few extras that spill over into August.  I know it's not the traditional summer themes of ice cream cones, beaches, or watermelon cookies, but I like being different.  I chose July because it's my birthday month and the best month of the year! 

To kick off this month I started out pretty simple.  I didn't want to get overwhelmed the first week.  I love the look of chevron.  I've made flags, pumpkins, and Christmas trees with chevron.  It's modern and like I said, it's a pretty simple look to achieve.

I own eleven different unicorn cookie cutters, which helped make this project a little easier.  This unicorn head can be purchased here.  I started off by piping and flooding the cookie with white icing and allowed it to dry.  The next day, I came back with my airbrush machine and added the chevron pattern.  I used this stencil.  I used silver, pink and purple sheen.  The purple came out very splotchy (I don't know what's up with my airbrush machine).

I hope you come back and check out the all the unicorns I have this month!
