Do you remember the story of the Gingerbread Man?
It was my youngest daughter's favorite story when she was 2. When her Grandpa bought her a gingerbread man at the bakery, she promptly bit off his feet so he couldn't run away!
I had 3 of these little gingerbread men. When I went to make a card with them, there was only this one.
I still haven't found the other 2.
I'm thinking the fox got them.
Maybe.
Still, I'd like to find the little guys.

The Ways to Use it Challenge at SCS is YOU'RE TAGGED. Make a tag. I used a sneak preview item from the upcoming Stampin' Up! Occasions catalog. It's the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch. There's an Angled Tag Topper Punch too, but I'm a sucker for scallops.
Pixie's Snippet Playground will let me in for another go at the swings, since I used some snippets for my tag.
All supplies are Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted

I was going to CASE this card by the Queen for the Day 2 weeks ago, Gail (GailNM). I was going for the 3 tags but had to rethink that. It probably would have been too crowded with all three on the card, so maybe it was for the best.
Still, I'd like to find the little guys.

Bling It On !!! ,,, time to PARTY !!
i.e anything sparkly goes, glitter, gems, stickles, glimmer sprays and paints etc :-)
There's not a lot of bling, just a few rhinestones. I'm hoping that's enough to get me in the door.The Ways to Use it Challenge at SCS is YOU'RE TAGGED. Make a tag.

This is precious, Bonnie!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas, my friend. :) Hope you find wonderful gifts under the tree and in your heart Christmas morning.
Aww poor gingerbread people (not allowed to call them "men" any more - not PC!). I hope they are found as it would be sad to think Mr F has eaten them!
ReplyDeleteGreat card Bonnie.
Hugs

Maybe someone ate the other two!!! One is just right on here though. So cute and pretty all rolled into one.
ReplyDeleteLynn
So cute...love the little guy. Hope the fox doesn't find this one.
ReplyDeleteDarling card, Bonnie! Love how you use dry embossing on any style card! Does your daughter get this one? Bet she'd get a kick out of it.
ReplyDeleteHe is adorable, Bonnie! He OWNS that card, so, yes, there is no room for the missing two! When I first started to read, I thought sure I would find a gingerbread man on your card with his feet cut off!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend! Hugs, Darnell
Gorgeous card Bonnie and I loved reading your post too ,,, the story about your daughter made me smile :-) I hope you find the other gingerbread men ,, haha :-)

Maybe next time you could use your scalloped oval punch to take a "bite" out of one of the legs ;). Have a fun Christmas!
ReplyDeleteSweet Gingerbread man! Season's Greetings ! Shirleyx
ReplyDeleteAdorable little gingerbread man! And a great tag. I must do that SCS challenge as I really like cards with tags on them - you've inspired me!
ReplyDeleteWonderful card Bonnie - so precious :)
ReplyDeleteI like to think the other two just eloped together :)
Hugs, Di xx
Gosh...I just love it...you do the best white and red combo creations...
ReplyDeleteI think of them as your classic look.
This is a cute tag and looks fabulous on your pretty card.
Well I'm not surprised the other two cleared off with the prospect of having their feet bitten off!!
ReplyDeleteLol. Hope you have a merry Christmas. hugs Mrs A.
Gorgeous card - love the lonely gingerbread man. Hope you found the two absconders eventually. Elizabeth xx
