Use Winter Tags for your Holiday Cookies!

I was trying my hand at icing some sugar cookies over the weekend and inserted a lollipop stick into a large snowman cookie before baking it.  I decided it would make a cute gift for a friend of mine so I added a tag from the Winter Tags set and added some curling ribbon.

The winter tags set is one of my favorite Winter rubber stamp sets.  Here's a link to a couple of other projects featuring this stamp set.

There are many ways to package cookies and food items.  You could create your own box from patterned paper or even stamp on a tin that you've purchased from a local dollar store.

Cookies are great inexpensive gifts that you can personalize to make them really special! (They're also fun to eat.)

Three Wise Snowmen

Here is a CASE'd card from Kendra's gallery at SCS for the Featured Stamper Challenge - FS93. I really like how well the snow shows up with these colors.

Winter Tags Sculpey Clay Ornament

This Winter Tags Ornament was created by stamping the image onto Sculpey Clay with Noir Palette ink. I baked it, let it cool and then colored the image with Copic Markers. I embellished the ornament with Icicle Stickles Glitter glue for some sparkle.

This Snowman Nativity Pin/Ornament was created by stamping Noir Palette Black ink onto Sculpey Clay. I baked it, let it cool and then colored the image with Copic Markers. I embellished the ornament with Icicle Stickles Glitter glue to give it a bit of sparkle.

Winter/Christmas Ornament & Pins

As I mentioned, here are some Sculpey Clay pins/ornaments with a Christmas/Winter theme. I used Sculpey Clay and ran it through a clay machine (looks like a pasta maker) to get the clay flat. I used Noir Black Palette Ink and stamped my images onto the clay. For the snowflake, I just used a stamp without ink and pressed it into the clay. I used my small scissors and and a craft knife to trim them and put them onto a cookie sheet. I baked the clay in the oven as directed at 275° for 15 minutes. I let the clay cool and then decorated them.

Each pin/ornament has a separate post with details:

I made a cute little penguin as well. You can see him here:

Here is a card to help get you ready for the winter. This card is based on a sketch comes from my upline, Heather Scott. I used Reflection Blue Palette Ink for the snowflakes and actually stamped some clear embossed flakes in white, but they don't show up that well. I did use some non-TAC products like the Aleene's Glitter Snow and the Ranger Puffs Embossing Powder, but I couldn't resist adding some texture to the card.

Winter Snowman Card

Here's my attempt at making a winter themed card with some different colors than what I am accustomed to using. You can see it very well in the scan, but I used white fun flock to give the snowmen a bit of texture.
