    I have found it for you Almond, don't think I can post links yet, as I'm still a lil too new. However, it is in this thread, Page 21, Post # 401 by FlyingPig. Its the MSE equivalent to going and buying cutters, etc. But is your decision!

    LOL Bubbles, how about using them as snowman arms in 'make a snowman' or use them as stirrers instead of candy canes in 'snowman soup'?!
    Or just eat them all when he is out!;)

    There's an idea over on activity village for Firework biscuits-quick and easy. I can't post a link(coz I'm new) but if you search 'chocolate fingers and firework biscuits' it comes up!

    :D

    Found a couple of ideas whilst out today shopping...

    Lots of pink and red stick on gems in a packet in Poundland-great 'cherries' for sock/flannel cakes or Rudolph noses.

    Also both Primark and Poundland were selling Santas Keys for £1. A key to help Santa open the door of those houses without a chimmney.

    Not sure of the exact logistics but thought might make a nice pre-Christmas gift using old/unused keys, tied a red ribbon and attach a tag explaining what it's for. I guess the receipient may leave it on a door step for the man in red to use? Anyway just a simple idea...might be nice to go in the Christmas Eve boxes that some people have mentioned on here.

    The prices were all for single cards but were depending on size
    I make cards all year round here and there and sell them for £1.50, but if someone asks me for a special make that is when i charge between £2.50 and £5 depending on the sizes
