The blue part of the eyes are wet-on-wet. This is how I think she did it:

 

1.) Fill in entire front window with white icing first

2.) Add blue pupils while white icing is still wet (wet-on-wet)

3.) Once icing is dry, draw on black details on and around eyes with a food-dye marker. (The marker would have to have a very fine tip to get the look that her cookies have. This brand would work: http://www.amazon.com/FooDoodler-Food-Coloring-Markers-Colors/dp/B005FCOUOA/ref=sr_1_15?ie=UTF8&qid=1401489188&sr=8-15&keywords=food+marker

4.) Add white highlight to the top of eye with royal icing.

 

For the headlights and mouth, I think they were added first and the red portion of the car was added second. You can keep clean lines if you apply the red frosting very carefully around the outline and don't overfill the red. I would also use a slightly thicker tip for outlining the black around the mouth since a little of it will get covered by the red icing. The black lines on top of the mouth were drawn on with a food dye marker.

 

I hope this helps!
