Homespun Winter Tree Cookies with Cardinal






Ginny ( The Creative Cookier) and I had fun brainstorming ideas
for a different twist on a Christmas tree.

This cute little "Winter Whimsical Tree" cutter set came from a scrap booking idea I saw online.
Piecing together several layers of the evergreen tree and added a fat little cardinal seemed ideal.
And thus, another CookieCrazie cutter set was born. :)

 The best part about this set is that you can customize it to your needs.
There are 4 tree-tier cutters and one trunk cutter in all.
The tree can be short, medium, or tall.....according to your preference.

For my first attempt to decorate the tree, I outline and flooded each tier with green.
After it dried about 30 minutes, I added green wavy lines to emulate the branches.




And for a Christmas-y touch, I added some multi-colored sixlets for "tree lights".  :)


The second attempt produced a squat-ty "patchwork quilt" tree.
