Hi, everyone! Here's another holiday card! This one features gingerbread cookies again! They are just so cute; I can't help myself! For this card, I have used stamps from Newton's Nook Designs. The slimline die is Catherine Pooler Slimline Essentials, which I used on dark kraft cardstock.
I stamped Newton's Nook Ginger Snap (sorry I think this stamp is retired; sad face) three times and coloured them all with markers, each one a bit different. I fussy-cut and added some dots with a white paint pen. Did you notice I "snapped off" one of the gingers' legs? I adhered foam tape to the gingers and adhered them onto mini cupcake liners that I found at Dollarama this week. I flattened out the cupcake liners by running them through my Cuttlebug. They are still a bit wrinkly but I think that adds to the charm!
I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set on green cardstock and used a Lawn Fawn speech bubble stamp and die. I wanted to add some coffee because gingerbread and coffee go perfectly together! Yum! I made the cup tiny as if the gingers would be drinking it haha. I used the tiny coffee cup stamp from Newton's Nook Sending Hugs, which I coloured and fussy-cut. I also added a leftover heart from another Newton's Nook stamp (Smitten Kittens). I finished the card with three punched snowflakes in green (Recollections punch).
My colour combo was inspired by Newton's Nook Inky Paws Challenge 161, which is a colour challenge (red, dark green, light green, and brown).

Your gingerbread men look good enough to eat!! And a darling card.
What an awesome card you've created Kitty, well done! I love the colours, the background even looks like a great big cookie. Fabulous idea to use the cupcake liners to mat the images, and I agree about the folds, it adds great texture. Love the sentiment too!
