Hi there!
How are you? I hope all is well in your crafting world! This is my second post for the day. Please scroll down to see my creation for Dies R Us.
Isn't that a wonderful inspiration photo with a sweet gingerbread? I was inspired to get out my Paper Sweeties gingerbread stamps, which is from the stamp set Ho Ho Ho and coordinating dies Sweet Cuts- Ho Ho Ho. to make this card...
For my card, I started with a natural card base from MFT. I added a Christmas bulb and sentiment from the stamp set Homespun Holidays and coordinating die Sweet Cuts-Homespun Holidays. I used up several scraps of paper and sewed them together. The rusty jingle bells and seam binding ribbon-green apple are also from Paper Sweeties. Twine and buttons to finish off the card.
I hope you have some fun creating a card or project this month for the challenge for one lucky winner will be awarded a $20 gift certificate. And, an invite to be guest designer for the following month!
Please follow the blog list below of my fellow teammates for some fabulous inspiration...have fun!
