Stars

Pretty cookie, but it doesn't currently qualify for the challenge, as you have not stated in a comment here the three different stencils you used (I see one big star and maybe another small star) nor the three different stenciling techniques you used. You need to state all of the above in order for the entry to qualify. Thanks!

I wanted to have only one type of object, but in 3 different shapes and/or sizes. I chose stars for 2 reasons - I had a craft plunger I could use to make myself a stencil (I used the plastic cover of an old school book ) and I think stars make a super scene, they could be considered a scene, right? (although the scene requirement was off)
I used dry luster dusts stencilling with a sponge for the big stars at the back:

RI stencilling with small stars:

And RI transfer stencilling with the ones with the funny shape

My additional were the different edible glitters. Here are all the materials I used:

And for this particular entry:

I made 3 versions and I love them all, but I chose this one for the entry, I hope it is the right choice! It took some time, because the RI stensilling of the small stars I had to do star by star and wait for them to get dry so that I can continue...
And I made so many funny-shaped stars...It took...forever...

Sorry, Julia, I just did! It took some time to explain everything. I don't know if there is a way to do that while posting the clip...

Nice, Zara! It is amazing how the cookie looks flat with the first layer of stars and then, with every additional layer of stars, it gives the optical illusion to be a little dome shaped.

Thanks, Manu! They are much prettier in person with all those glitters, but you know how difficult is to show that in a photo... 

Pretty!!!

Thank you for the very detailed description of your process.  This is a very fun and cheerful cookie!  Who knew you could do so much with just a whole lot of stars?!

Thanks a lot! I am really happy you like it and you find it fun and cheerful, because that's what I wanted to achieve. Thank you again for providing us such a great time and fun doing those 'challenge' cookies! I can not wait to found out what the next challenge will be!

Hi, Zara.  I might know the secret.  This is what I do

1  Prepare photos when I have more than one and put them in one folder to  find them easily for later

2  Write the documents (my case with WORD)

3   Copy and paste the documents in "comment"

4   Post the photos, we can post all photos with "Shift" key at a time so we do not need to post one by one

5   Place the cursor where I want to put a photo then choose a photo and imbody it.

If the above is ambiguous, I will try to explain in a different way.

Not to worry - I just happened to be online at the same time you were posting and you indeed had a lot to write. I don't know if I could have uploaded it any faster.

Thanks, Ryoko! I thought about the same, I will use it next time for sure

YES 

Clever idea to create your own stencils. Nice indeed
