You’re my Gingerbread Card

My Stampin' Up! Card with Gingerbread Cookies on It
You’re my Gingerbread Card

Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing my You’re my Gingerbread Card using the Frosted Gingerbread Bundle by Stampin’ Up!

For my card, I wanted to use the Gingerbread Dies to die cut the images out of the Gingerbread & Peppermint Designer Series Paper. I love that you can do this to create your cards! Great for mass producing your Christmas cards!

I thought the Kraft paper would tie in nicely with the brown cookies in the DSP. Once I die cut it with the largest scallop die, I stamped the peppermint swirls all over it in Versamark. This tone-on-tone look adds a subtle bit of interested without taking away from the delicious cookies.

I also stamped in Versamark the sentiment on a piece of Real Red that I die cut using one of the Stitched Rectangles Dies. This I embossed in white using my Heat Tool. I added the gingerbread trim in Basic White under my sentiment trimming it to fit the rectangle. I added a fun Gingerbread & Peppermint Acrylic Shape and a scattering of Red Rhinestone Basic Jewels to tie in my colours and theme.

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here sharing My Gingerbread Fun Fold Card for the Design Team of Paper Nest Dolls. I used a number of digital stamps to create my fun gingerbread card including Gingerbread HouseGingerbread BoyGingerbread GirlGingerbread Winter BoyTiny Emma with Cookie and Tiny Ellie with Candy Cane.

I had so much fun creating this wonderland of gingerbread. My idea was that I wanted to create a centre-step card and planned to use my colouring from the recent 30 Day Coloring Challenge to build my card. I’m so happy with how it turned out!

I created a ton of layers with the snow banks that all sparkle with Stardust Stickles and then layered my characters between them in the different folds. Of course, that is not all that sparkles! The windows of the house, Ellies’s candy cane and Emma’s peppermint candy bow all have glossy accents. I even added Clear Wink of Stella to the peppermint swirl on the house, the gum drops in front of the house, the Gingerbread Girl’s bow and hearts and the heart on Ellie’s dress! Can’t have a Christmas card without Christmas trees all dressed up for Christmas with stars and red Christmas lights! The Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper by Stampin Up! was perfect to create my snowy scene.
