Gingerbread Recipe Page - Day 2

To continue the Christmas Food Theme I have an 8x8 Recipe page for Gingerbread Cookies for Day 2 

I used Design Studio on this layout to get the sizing right. I cut the gingerbread man out of brown cardstock and the face and zig zags out of white cardstock . I used a couple of red buttons on the front of him.  The gingerbread man snowflake is from When Its Cold Outside and I have the "cookies" on a clear button in the center of the snowflake. I have the sheer ribbon running behind the snowflake and a tab on the recipe instructions.

Thanks for stopping by.

Santa and Reindeer Snowflake - Day 7

Here is Day 7 for the 30 Day's of Christmas Cards. If you missed the first 6 Day's click here.
I really like all of the different snowflake's on the When Its Cold Outside cartridge, but sometimes it's hard to figure out how to use them without losing the design. The card base is from a kit that had cards already in it. I'm sorry but I don't know the name of the kit - it is a couple of years old.
I cut the snowflake out twice once in white and again in red. I fussy cut the red poinsettia, used red ink and then red embossing power on it.

I always do something on the inside of the cards and here it is just a piece of the music stamped on blue and mounted onto the red cardstock. All of the edges are inked with Coffee Bean.



I'm also entering this card in the Cricut Card Challenge #49 - Make a Christmas card with something that starts with an "S" . Maybe I'll get extra points for the Double S - Snowflake and Santa - ha,ha. Thanks for stopping by.
