These cookies have always been one of my favorite Christmas cookies. When I found out that they were my adult daughter's favorite too, I started giving them to her as a birthday present (which is on Christmas Day). It has become a tradition.

Process
Page 5 from Recipe Template Pack 2 was opened up and the text area resized smaller, then slightly rotated. Solid paper 2 from Mini Jocund was used as the foundation of the page. Artsy paper 1 was clipped to the large mask and adjusted to allow for some of the color and texture to show through. Solid paper 2 from APP Shabby Christmas was clipped to the smaller top mask. The photo was clipped to a fotoblendz mask and placed on the right side of the page. A colored overlay was clipped to the stitching to make it stand out more and frame the area. The title was added (with a custom drop shadow). A layer mask was clipped to the text. Using a brush from AnnaBlendz Artsy 3 part of the title was hidden giving it a more transparent look. The doily transfer from APP Santa Christmas was placed at the top adding more texture. The page was completed by adding text, splatters and dimensional embellishments.
