Again this idea was inspired by an issue of Paper Crafts Magazine. I just love that mag!!
It was pretty inexpensive to make too! I used a memory book from Walmart which was in the crafts section and had plain covers. It only cost $3.99 if I remember correctly. The gingerbread is cut out from a thin sheet of 12 x 12 cork adhesive by Karen Foster Design. I used a natural coloured paper to cover the cover with and then inked the edges of the folder and gingerbread cookie with chalk ink. Philadelphia font foam stamps from Making Memories was used with red paint on a seperate piece of the naturaly coloured paper. I then cut around each letter individually and adhered them to the cover with some adhesive foam dots. I bought the Ric Rac and ribbon from Walmart which were also pretty cheap!
I found a really cute poem about Cookies which I printed onto cardstock and stuck on the inside cover.
Christmas Cookies
By Norma Rose
Sift the flour, mix the butter,
Roll the dough for the cookie cutter.
A white sugar star, a red Christmas bell,
A brown teddy bear with a gingery smell.
Christmas cookies taste so sweet.
They’re fun to bake and good to eat!
