Look at ALL that yummy gingerbread...cookies and houses galore! I am still so hooked on The Greetery's Market Place Shoppe Dies and was thrilled to pull them out again to come up with this...
I used the Market Place Mini dies for this card and I also hadn't made a mini slimline card in quite awhile, so this is what I came up with combining the two. The Market Place Mini dies come as a set of three houses, and since all 3 wouldn't fit on the mini slimline panel, I just decorated one house and used the other two behind and to the sides of the decorated one. I did use Gina K's Brick stencil over the house that I'd die cut from kraft with my brown blending brush and then decorated with all the white trim and the wreaths and bows. I also added a strip of vellum behind the windows of the decorated house.
I used Gina K's ML#7 for my background panel and embossed it with SSS's Snowflake Visions embossing folder. I did run my white pigment ink pad over the tops of the embossed snowflakes so they would stand out a bit. more. I added a torn snow hill over the bottom portion of my layered panel and added glitter to the torn part for a bit of sparkle and added my sentiment in red to the middle of the snow hill. I did use foam tape behind the snow hill and also the decorated house to add some dimension. I finished by adding two little red hearts I had in my stash (I think maybe SU!?). Really tickled by the way this card turned out!
