Cold And Frosty Cookie Basket

Welcome back to Lost Coast Portal to Creativity where Lost Coast Designs and Carmen's Veranda collide to bring you twice the inspiration and double the fun!

 

Hello Portal Peeps!!  Gail here today with a little project to hold some cookies.   I did some baking and thought it would be nice to give some away in a cute little basket.  I've used blues and snowflakes and glitter for that Cold and Frosty look.

I used Carmen's Veranda Reindeer Doll with Lost Coast Designs Small Snowflakes and ATC Doodle Circles stamps.  I altered the measurements from a tag holder project I made the other day, increasing the basket size to accommodate my cookie package.

I started by stamping Reindeer Doll twice on white card, because I need an image for both sides of the basket.  I masked and stamped ATC Doodle Circles with pale blue ink all over the card.  I need some extra pieces of background for the sides and handle.

I stamped the Small Snowflakes with dark blue ink and coloured the deer with shades of blue distress markers and Promarkers.  I gave the dress a watercolour wash.  I cut the stamped panels with a tag die and backed with the blue card I used to make the basket.  Then I added some glitter, cos you need a bit of sparkle at Christmas.

Here's a view of the finished basket with my pig shaped cookies on the side.

We hope you get some time to stamp and join us at the Cold and Frosty challenge.  Don't forget to pop back and check out all the awesome inspiration from the team.  

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz
