Hello, everyone, and Happy New Year! Before I get started, I would like to welcome my newest follower - Wendy Batchen - thank you for joining me!
Today I'm sharing a gingerbread card! I love making them so much and it seems I did not get enough of them in December! Gingerbreads make me happy, perhaps a fun memory from my childhood! For this card I used the adorable Peeking Gingerbread Kids from Digi Doodle Studios. I coloured these cuties with markers, added accents with a white paint marker, and fussy-cut so I could pop them up on foam tape. The stamped sentiment is from Your Next Stamp Christmas Cookie.
I continue to tackle my pile of patterned paper scraps/snippets and today I have used lots of them, along with some glitter scraps. I also used a scrap of coffee-themed paper (Your Next Stamp Crazy for Coffee) and a leftover Ric Rac Border die-cut (Your Next Stamp) that went unused from last month. The snowflake embossed white panel was also a leftover from December (Taylored Expressions Winter Flurry). I finished the card by adhering three red snowflake sequins.

ReplyDeleteI love ❤️ the diagonally strips of paper and not just because you are using scraps. I’ve used scraps and they didn’t have as much cohesiveness. These papers you used look great together.
ReplyDeleteFabulous creation! Thanks for joining us for Challenge #45 at Digi Doodle Studios!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card!
