Camera cookies

I thought about titling this post

PHOTOGRAPHING COOKIES.

Hee hee.

Actually I would have never thought to make camera cookies if a friend had not asked me to make these as a gift for a fellow photographer.  

Was that a run on sentence?

Anyway, I googled Nikon D7000 and got busy.

I am positively awful at making a circle, so I cut a couple of circle shapes out of card stock and used them to trace the shape of the lens.

Rest assured I used a food coloring marker and not a sharpie.

I rooted through all of my cutters hoping to hybridize something into a camera shape, but to no avail.  I had to make my own pattern  (once again, out of card stock) and hand cut the cookie dough.  

It is always interesting to do something unexpected and out of my comfort zone.  

Bagged and tied with bright red ribbon, they made a cute gift for the owner of a REAL Nikon D7000.

I am beyond excited to show you my next batch of cookies (calico eggs).  They just might be my favorite cookies ever!
