Help me brainstorm?

OK, I'm making the cookies for my parents party today, so that if it goes horribly wrong, which it could, I still have time to make more.

I only have circle cookie cutters (3 diff sizes), and I'm OK with that.  I'm thinking simple is a better idea for a beginner.  So now I'm trying to decide what type of design to put on them.  Obviously they don't all have to be the same, but I want them to be thematically similar.  I don't want them to be so elaborate that I have to spend an hour on each cookie, but I want more than slapping on a "30" on each one.  I have a whole bunch of different ideas and I can't settle.

1.  I really love henna, and I might do a couple just for me, but that type of design, while beautiful, has no connection to my parents?
2.  Snowflakes?  It's winter...IDK?
3.  Draw a heart in the middle of each one and decorate in different ways (dots, crosshatching, etc)?
4.  Something with this technique?
