Gingerbread Bouquet

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

I'm squeaking in at the last minute with this card.

Gingerbread is a staple for our Cookie Day and this gingerbread man stamp

and die is always among my Christmas cards.

The bouquet is new and I had fun coloring and arranging all the pieces.

I stamped the edging with white pigment ink and heat embossed, then used a

stencil to add some cracks in the cookie.

The enamel buttons and black dots were in my stash.  All of the greenery and

candy canes were cut from white Neenah and inked up with finger daubers.

A pierced cover plate provided the background.

Added to add.  I don't need to decide whether to eat the head or feet first.  I claim

all the broken pieces (on the real thing, not the paper version).

Challenges:

Peace on Earth #75 - Inspired by the gingerbread on mood board below

Jingle Belles - Christmas Feast

NBUS #68 - Never Before Used Schtuff ( Spellbinders Dies)
