12 Days of Christmas Day 10 Cookie Holder

Oh Snap gingerbread cookie holder made with the gingerbread man Bundle for the 12 days of Christmas with Melanie and Brenda from Stamps and Stretchy Pants. Project originally created by Melanie Hockin of Mel's Inky Fingers.

Welcome back to day 10 of 12 Days of Christmas with Brenda and Melanie! I am having so much fun creating with the adorable Gingerbread Man bundle, and today I created a gingerbread man cookie holder!

My crafty friend Brenda Zorn, from Stamps & Stretchy Pants, and I have now shared 10 adorable projects with you through our 12 Days of Christmas using the Homemade Treats and Gingerbread Man Bundles. They are both so cute and coordinate perfectly, making them so easy to create with.

Today’s project uses just the Gingerbread Man Bundle.

Supplies used to create a Gingerbread girl card made with the Gingerbread Man bundle, Modern Christmas designer series paper and Pressed Flowers Embossing Folder. Project created for 12 days of Christmas with brenda nelson zorn of stamps and stretchy pants by Melanie Hockin of Mel's Inky Fingers.

Gingerbread Man Cookie Treat

What better treat to share than gingerbread man cookies in a gingerbread man cookie holder! This is not only adorable, it’s easy to create and sure to make anyone smile.

I first created a simple box from Pecan Pie cardstock, then created two gingerbread men to add to each side. For a little color, I added a band of Christmas Tags & More Designer Series Paper and a ribbon bow to the box. White embossing created the icing on the gingerbread men, and they were embellished with black Neutral Matte Dots and Real Red & White Peppermints for cute detail.

The cookies were placed in an Iridescent Treat bag and tied with a piece of coordinating Shiny Real Red Ribbon.

Unfortunately, this little guy had a mishap, and had his food snapped! So I applied the black dots to his eyes to create expression, and added the Oh Snap sentiment. So fun!

To Create This Project

7″ x 9-1/2″ scored at 2″ and 5″ on short edge and 3-1/4″ and 6-1/4″ on long edge
8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ to die cut (2) gingerbread men (use partial die cutting technique to get rounded hands on both sides)
(2) 5″ x 1-1/2″ pieces of designer series paper each scored at 2″ on long edge

Stamp crumbs on box in Versamark ink. Clip at score lines to create flaps and fold to make a box. Adhere patterned paper and tie a ribbon bow around box. Stamp gingerbread men and details in Versamark ink and heat emboss with white powder. Adhere both to box with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Place black matte dots on eyes and peppermints to buttons. Place cookies in a treat bag, tie closed with ribbon and add to box.
