Faux Christmas Cookie Ornaments

Happy Wednesday everyone!  Up on the blog today is a fun hop called Craft Lightning Holiday Edition - everything is made in 15 minutes or less! How fun is that?  It is hosted by The Country Chic Cottage, 30 Minute Crafts and co-host Aunt Peaches.

One thing that I always have time for is Christmas Ornaments!  All shapes, sizes and colors - the options are endless!  Today I am featuring these Faux Christmas Cookie ornaments!  Made from craft foam and three dimensional fabric paint - they are QUICK, EASY and CUTE!  A great craft to make with the kiddos and the cost of the supplies won't break the bank either.

Faux Christmas Cookie Ornaments

Here is what you will need:

• Colorbox® Crafter's Ink by Ann Butler - Bark
• Tulip® Dimensional Fabric Paint by I Love to Create - Slick True Red, White and Pistachio
• Aleene's® Original Tacky Glue® by I Love to Create
• Cookie Cutters - Candy Cane and Heart (or shapes of your choice); Craft Foam - Tan; Pencil; Scissors; Clear Chunky Glitter; Silver Beads and Gold Cord.

Here is how to make it:

1.)  Trace cookie cutter shapes onto craft foam.  Cut out with scissors.  Distress edges of cookies with Colorbox® Crafter's Ink by Ann Butler in Bark.  This gives your cookies that "just baked" look!

2.)  "Frost" cookies with Tulip® Dimensional Fabric Paint in True Red and White.  Accent with silver beads, sprinkle with clear chunky glitter and let dry.

3.) Embellish with Tulip® Dimensional Fabric Paint in Pistachio, let dry.

4.) Attach 8" length of gold cord to back of each cookie with  Aleene's® Original Tacky Glue®, let dry.
