YNS Christmas New Release Blog Hop

Hello again, my friends! If you are here for my Paper Romance post, please scroll down. Here I am again with another post for you! Today I am lucky and thrilled to be a GDT member for Your Next Stamps' New Christmas Release Blog Hop. I absolutely LOVE YNS images and wait till you get a look at the sweeeet stamp I am working with today.

Gingerbread houses/people are some of my favorite decorations during the Christmas season. I love the old fashioned country charm they provide and the wonderful gingerbread and cinnamon-y smells just warms up your heart and home! ;) Every year, my girls and I make a gingerbread house and gingerbread cookies to hang on our tree while listening to Bing Crosby's Christmas CD. We love it - can't wait for the holidays!!

So for this card I used this Gingerbread House that you can find HERE. I made a shadow box - instructions can be found here at Splitcoaststampers. I cut out the gingerbread man with my Cricut and used white Scribbles paint for the frosting details. I found the buttons and snowflakes at Joanne Fabrics. I colored my image with copics as always. ;)
