PP669 Gingerbread Christmas

Hi there, everyone!  It's Sunday and time for another Paper Players challenge, with Jaydee as our hostess! And she has a timely theme for us:

So many ideas from our mood board!  I combined the top left and center pictures for my card today:



This little card is just chock-full of holiday treats--candy, hot cocoa, and gingerbread men!  The background paper from Echo Park's Santa Claus Lane was my starting point, and I pulled out different sets and dies to create the little focal point. My sketch comes from Hand Stamped Sentiments:


And my elements are all from Close to My Heart, except for the gingerbread diecut, which is from Lisa Jones/Sissix.  My sentiment is from Our Daily Bread Designs:


Everything went on a Lovely Lipstick card base.  My inside sentiment is from a Fiskars set which I don't think I've ever used!


I had so much fun making this!  If you have some Christmas cards still needing to be done, I hope you'll find some inspiration from our theme board!  Whip up something and share it with us over at the Paper Players!  Check out what the other designers did as well!  Thanks for visiting today!

  8. LeAnne, your card is perfect for the weather today. Warm and cozy. I love that DSP you used and how you tied the coffee cups in the focal panel to the background. The scalloped layers add a wonderful touch of movement, too. Thanks for rocking my challenge this week

  11. LeAnne, I was going to tell you that I put on weight just looking at this card and then see that Bonnie got there first! I love this card! I don't think I've ever seen brown glitter, but what a great idea for the top of the hot chocolate. Gorgeous card!
    Xoxo, Fran
