Isn't she a cutie with her white piping and red glittery bow?! I used a SSS die called Gingerbread Man that I've had for over a year and is making its first debut today. (I think this would be cute using felt and stitching it up too!) I made this into another book binding fold card where my 4 1/4" x 11" piece of cardstock is scored in half at 5 1/2" and then scored again 1 1/4" away from the 5 1/2" score line. For this card I also trimmed off a 1/2" from the front edge so that you could see the coordinating dsp that's on the inside edge. All the dsp on this card is from an older pack from SU! called Candy Cane Lane.
I matted all my dsp with Real Red cs and also added a Crimped Circle die cut (The Greetery) in the Real Red cs to place behind my gingerbread girl. I used PTI's Tiny Tags dies for the tiny circle tag that I embossed in white for my sentiment. A little sheer ribbon over the book binding edge and a few peppermint candy gems finished off this sweet card.
Lots of fabulous inspiration from the DT that you can check out right HERE. I must say CONGRATULATIONS again to Darlene & Diane (owners of the Peace on Earth Challenge) on this 100th challenge...I sure have enjoyed playing along over the past years! This challenge is open till Thursday, Dec. 4th @ 8:00PM.

This is so festive and merry, Marcia! Your gingerbread girl is extra cute with her snazzy red bow and I like the peppermint bits sprinkled about. Darling card, my friend!
She is SO sweet! Love the different cardbase style and colors, of course, but she is the cherry on top!
I love how you dressed her up with a sparkly bow in her hair, Marcia! Love those papers are are a perfect match for Ms Gingerbread!
Sweet gingerbread girl! I especially love her red sparkly bow! :)
Adorable card Marcia! xx
