Merry Monday!!

I am thrilled to say that a card I made last week for a challenge
at Merry Monday was chosen, along with others, to receive an
honorable mention - Thank you Ladies!!
Congrats to the winner and to all the ladies who received an
honorable mention!!!

The challenge this week at Merry Monday is to use a gingerbread man or woman 

on your card.  I didn't think I was going to be able to play as I don't own any

 gingerbread men stamps. But when I was organizing my craft room today and going

 through my retired stamp sets, I came across a little gingerbread stamp from 

Got Treats and thought YAY!!! I can play!!!

I decided to keep it really simple this week. Instead of the traditional

red and green though I went with cajun craze, old olive and early espresso. 

I really like this color combo.

First I ran the card base through the big shot using the decorative dots EF.

I stamped the gingerbread men as if they were dancing across the

paper, added the greeting that I inked up with cajun craze and old olive, a

few coordinating brads, some baker's twine tied in a bow, pop it up on 

dimensionals and we are done!

supplies:

card stock: whisper white, old olive, cajun craze, early espresso

stamp set: got treats, merry merry (recollections)

ink: old olive, cajun craze, chocolate chip

big shot: decorative dots EF

embellishments: brads (?), lucky limeade baker's twine

Happy Stampin'

and thanks for visiting!!
