I made this sleigh yesterday. Gathering together different sweets, I used strong glue dots to hold everything together. To begin with, I added a small piece of red cardstock and attached the two candy canes using glue dots. Then I just added small packs of various sweets. I stamped and cut out the Santa image and coloured him using some markers. I "bent" Santa a the waist(or where I assumed his waist was, hard to tell with a plump cuddly Santa!) and once again attached him to the stack of sweets. I punched a tiny hole in his mittens and added the gold cord. I learnt a few things along the way, and will make more of these as gifts. This was oodles of fun to create! Instead of a stamped image of Santa, you could use a small Santa ornament. Below is a photo of the sweets all stacked up ready for Santa to be placed on top! I'm going to check the $2 Shop today, to see if I can find some small Reindeer so I can add them to the Sleigh! That's the plan anyway!
And YES! I admit it, a couple of those mini Milky Way bars were consumed by me as I was creating this! Well I had to make sure they tasted ok...! Thanks for dropping by! Have a SUNSHINE day! Remember to always be your authentic self and shine bright each and every day!
