Start with a piece of Whisper White, punched with the Ornament Punch, then emboss using the Elegant Lines Embossing Folder.
Attach the ornament to a piece of Silver Glimmer Paper, punched with the Extra-Large Oval Punch. On top of that, attach a piece of Peach Parfait, punched out with the Large Oval Punch.
Add two eyes. These two are Basic Black card stock, punched out using the medium circles from the Owl Builder Punch.
Add the mouth. This mouth is a piece of Real Red punched out with one of the medium circles from the Owl Builder Punch.
Add Santa's mustache -- two Whisper White wings from the Bird Builder Punch.
Santa's nose is another of the medium circles from the Owl Builder Punch, and is from a piece of Peach Parfait card stock.
Santa's hat is next. Start with a Real Red Extra-Large Oval attached to the back of Santa's head.
For the side of Santa's hat, attach a piece punched twice with the Large Oval Punch to create this shape:
Finally, embellish the end of Santa's hat however you like. For the Santa treat boxes, we used the Jewelry tag punch and then added a jingle bell and a Cherry Cobbler/Whisper White Baker's Twine bow. Here's an army of Santas I made for my boys' teachers -- I've attached their tags but they are still waiting for jingle bells and bows:
And, Daniel liked the Santa so much, he requested we use him to create treats for his classroom. For those, I added a 1/2" circle of the Silver Glimmer Paper to the hats:
Hope you enjoy the tutorial and use it to create some fun projects of your own!
Thanks for stopping by!

Thanks again for the credit, but you know that I didn't come up with the original idea...wish I could remember who did. Love what you did with the cone die. It's so neat that your boys appreciate your artistic endeavors too! Marlene Caravello
