CREATED ESPECIALLY FOR
Hallmark Keepsake Ornament Club Members
Keepsake Ornament sculptor Nina Aubé has always had a special affection for tiny animals-partly because they were the only pets allowed in the apartment she lived in as a child. From creating shadowbox scenes, to making little outfits for gerbils, to designing a candy-box automobile for a hamster, Nina was fascinated by the idea of small characters living in a big world. The Cookie Cutter Christmas series is Nina’s way of celebrating and sharing those whimsical childhood fantasies.
