There I was waiting at a stop light- I have no idea where this idea came from, but I suddenly though doing the classic "Mom tattoo" as a cookie might look cool.

I quickly took a left towards the grocery store instead of a right to go home so I could buy frosting. (Incidentally I'd never tried that cookie flood icing in a bag but it worked pretty much as well as homemade icing and was quicker since I could buy it already tinted to the colors I needed.)

To make the shape I used a heart cookie cutter I already had. Then cut the banner tips out with a knife, adding them to the heart by pressing them into the edges.

I kind of like that it's not the traditional Mother's Day look. What do you think?
I love it! Are you sending me one??????
