Sweet Treats for Christmas by Sue Smyth

#couturecreationsaus



Hi Bloggers 
do you have any last minute gifts to make or little blank 
spots on the tree that need a decoration?
I have a super project for you 



This gorgeous decoration is made really simply 
from an old cookie cutter and Couture Creations 
Glitter Paper.
This one is a tree 


And this one is a ginger bread man 


You can follow my step by step below to make
 your very own and decorate with 
Couture Creations 3 mm pearls and rhinestones 


Select the easier shapes to start with.


Dry brush with gesso inside and out.
You can also add a bit of crackle medium
for an interesting shabby look.



When dry spray with a matching ink, in 
this case green


Place over glitter paper and mark
and out line with a white paint pen.
Trim out to fit the cookie cutter


Decorate the inside with pearls and rhinestones.
Use pearl drops to colour the edge and add 
further embellishment


punch 2 holes in the 
top of the cookie cutter 


Thread through gold string, to hang with
before you add the cheeky gingham bow.
