A Sweet Christmas

I hope you had a wonderful weekend!  It's Jeanne today with a sweet card to start the week.  As I mentioned in this post, gingerbread is one of my favorite themes for Christmas.  And the new Christmas releases have some wonderful gingerbread and baking themed dies.


My card today uses two of the dies - Gingerbread Cottage and Sweet as a Christmas Cookie.  For this card I used paper that came from the same paper pack as my previous gingerbread card.

For this card I wanted to see more "sweet" in keeping with the sentiment.


I used white glitter paper for the frosting on my house and also for my gumdrops.  It was easy to color the glitter paper with Copic markers.


I also wanted my peppermints to shine, so after assembling them I covered them in Glossy Accents. I used Distress Oxide ink in Vintage Photo to "brown" the cookies, house and card.

Be sure to visit the online store where the new releases are on sale for a limited time!

Thanks for visiting today!  I hope you have a wonderful week!
