Cookie Cutter Christmas Santa Earrings

Do you remember making Shrinky Dinks as a kid?  Well, I have stamped the Santa from the Cookie Cutter Christmas set on the plastic sheets with Stazon ink and colored them in with Sharpie markers and punched them out with the Cookie Cutter Builder Punch.  Then, I punched a 1/8" hole at the top before heat setting them.  I heat set them with the Heat Tool, but you can also bake them in the oven. It is fun to watch them shrink to a smaller size. I added some jump rings and french hooks to make them into Holiday earrings.  Then I made this box for the Shrinky Dink earrings inside.  The Cookie Cutter stamp sets are perfect for making earrings. I have even made mummy earrings. Julie Davison has a video to show how to make the earrings and the box.

Cookie Cutter Christmas Santa - Z-Fold

This is another card I made with the Cookie Cutter Christmas set from the Holiday Catalog. It is a Z-Fold card so the bottom picture shows what it looks like when it is open.  The base of my card is Real Red cardstock cut at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4" and 1-1/4". The Designer Series Paper is the new Candy Cane Lane DSP cut at 3" x 5-1/2" and 1-1/4" x 5-1/2". The little gingerbread house is also from this new DSP paper and I cut it out with my Paper Snips to put on the inside of my card.  The sentiment says "Happiness is Coming to Town" which is from another stamp set in the new catalog called Hang Your Stockings.  First I stamped the Santa and colored him in with markers.  Then I punched him out with the new Cookie Cutter Builder Punch that can be purchased as a bundle with the Cookie Cutter Christmas set.  I used the Layering Ovals Framelit Dies from the Annual Catalog using Whisper White and Crumb Cake.

You Can't Catch Me, I'm the Gingerbread Man

Just made this fun spinner card last night using the Sliding Star Framelit with the new Cookie Cutter Christmas set from the 2016 Holiday Catalog.   It made me thing of the Gingerbread Man story "You Can't Catch Me, I'm the Gingerbread Man."   The base of my card is Real Red and the paper is Candy Cane Lane DSP which has lots of  "visions of sugarplums" on it with colors of Crumb Cake, Real Red, Early Espresso and Whisper White. He is attached to two pennies with a rounded Dimensional between them and one on top to attach the punched out Gingerbread man that was stamped on Crumb Cake with Early Espresso.   The Cookie Cutter Builder Punch makes it so easy to make tons of Gingerbread men and any of the other four stamps that come with this set.   I'm having so much fun making these spinner cards.
