I've explained in previous post about my connections to Día de los Muertos.  In the past while researching Day of the Dead designs I notice and it wasn't just skulls.  I knew that with all the colors and intricate designs this would make a pretty awesome looking unicorn. 

I used the same large unicorn I used to create the subway art unicorns.  I wanted to use a larger unicorn that had plenty of space for the the designs I wanted to incorporate.  I piped and flooded the cookie white.  Next, I placed six royal icing flowers on it.  Then I just started piping random designs of hearts, webs, and filigree.  I piped some dots and liked how they looked so I covered most of the cookie with them.  The dots gave the unicorn more of henna look.  The unicorn ended up being a combination of the two.
