\nValentine\u2019s Day Cookie Quotes for Owls:
\nBefore we start baking and making our royal icing let\u2019s talk Valentine\u2019s Day cookie quotes. Here are a few of my faves. If you have a Valentine\u2019s Day quote for owls please leave a comment below because we\u2019d love to know your faves!\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
Owl You Need is LOVE!
\nYou\u2019re a HOOT!
\nI Will OWL-Ways Love YOU!
\nWHOO\u2019s My Favorite Valentine? You are!
\nOwl Be Your Friend FOREVER!<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s decorate some Olivia Owl Sugar Cookies!<\/p>\n
Begin by baking your cookies and letting them cool completely.
\nMake your royal icing and mix your colors.
\nOutline your owl cookies with the tan royal icing. I used an outline consistency for the edges and a flood consistency to fill it in. If you like using one consistency then use what makes you happy.
\nAfter you outline and flood the owl cookies, place them in front of a fan to help the icing surface dry without sinking and it\u2019ll also help the royal icing dry with a shine.\u00a0
\nLet the icing dry completely before you move on to the next steps.<\/p>\n
Time for a little splatter on our Olivia Owl Sugar Cookies!<\/p>\n
Mix a little White food gel color with a little water.
\nDip the fan brush into the mixture and dab off the excess on a paper towel.
\nFlick the food gel and water mixture over the top of the Olivia Owl sugar cookies. Hold the turkey lacer or scribe tool about six inches above the cookies. Hold the fan brush over the turkey lacer and push it down towards the cookies to make the splatter. Be sure to cover the work surface or you\u2019ll have white dots everywhere! Parchment paper works great for containing the splatter.\u00a0
\nFlick the owls until you\u2019re happy with the way they look.<\/p>\n
By the way, this is a super simple technique to add some fun color to your cookies. It\u2019s one of my favorite decorating techniques.\u00a0
\nAdd the eyes and some airbrush color:<\/p>\n
Airbrushing is optional. The owls will look great with or without it.<\/p>\n
Add the eyes:<\/p>\n
Add a little royal icing where you want to add the royal transfer eyes. Add the eye and repeat for the pupil.
\nI didn\u2019t take a picture for this step, but add a couple of white royal icing dots to each eye.\u00a0
\nNow add a little more icing and add the beaks.<\/p>\n
You\u2019re Olivia Owl Sugar Cookies are all done!<\/p>\n
Which Valentine\u2019s Day quote will you use if you make these? I like them all, but I think my favorite is \u201cI Will OWL-Ways LOVE YOU!\u201d I feel that way about y\u2019all.
