Today, while enjoying some downtime together as a family, I put together a quick and easy sugar cookie felt board set for Miss G…  A sugar cookie cutting and decorating set.  All it really required was a few sheets of the cheap {recycled from plastic bottles} felt, a pair of sharp scissors, a plastic cookie cutter, and about 40 minutes of {interrupted} time.  Because Valentine’s Day is coming up, I went with a heart-shaped cutter, but any shape would be fun.

To start off, I traced the cookie cutter onto the tan felt several times, placing them as I’d cut out cookies from rolled dough (making sure to leave a decent amount of space between each).  The only tricky thing is that in order to keep your ‘rolled dough’ piece intact, you have to very carefully cut the shapes out without cutting through the borders.

Here’s what you should have when your shapes have all been cut out.

Then I quickly rounded the edges to make the rolled dough piece look a little bit more realistic.

Next, I cut out smaller hearts in different colours (and two sizes) to act as the frosting.

The last {and easiest} job was creating ‘candy sprinkles’ by chopping up thin strips of felt.

Miss was dying to get her hands on her new game, and began placing the cookies into the dough immediately.

Then it was straight to cutting them out using her cookie cutter.

Next up – the best part…  Decorating!

Almost as much fun as the real thing… If only felt cookies tasted delicious. ☺
