Underwater cookies

We're home for a week and a half but unfortunately I still have no inspiration for baking :( Lucky me (and you) that I still have a few recipes in the archives that I can post about. I'm starting today with the easiest to post about because it doesn't require a specific recipe other than a roll out cookie recipe and royal icing :)
I made these cookies for the Summer Party at the daycare centre my boys go to twice a week. It had an underwater theme so this design seemed appropriate ;) Timewise the party was not very convenient because it was on the day before we left for Croatia but I didn't want to make something boring looking like 'ordinary' cookies ;)
I'm still struggling to get the right consistency for royal icing, always being afraid to make it too runny. The few times I used it, it turned out a bit too stiff. Next time I try it runnier (that's what I always think ;)
I was happy with the design but it would have looked better with less stiff royal icing.
