Good morning everyone...what a beautiful day we are having in Central Texas!!! I just love these cool mornings and the fact that my air conditioner isn't kicking on...maybe my electric bill will be tolerable this month...LOL!!! We watched grandkiddos yesterday so I didn't get in the craft room till after 10:00 last night....then I spent way tooo much time fussing over this card for the Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge #18. I changed the papers twice before I was finally satisfied!!The sweet little gingerbread images from Waltzingmouse's Oven Fresh Gingerbread Joy set were stamped on white with Memento Rich Cocoa and colored with copics. All the candies were stamped with Riding Hood Red onto white cardstock and the background paper is from Making Memories. Distressing, sewing, and the button with twine finish it off.
Recipe:
Stamps: Waltzingmouse Oven Fresh Gingerbread Joy
Ink: Memento Rich Cocoa, Riding Hood Red
Paper: White, Riding Hood Red, Making Memories dp
Accessories: Button, Twine, Sewing Machine
This is also for a few other challenges:
1. Fab 'n' Funky - Yummy, Yummy, Yummy
2. Little Red Wagon - something old and something new (new stamps, old paper)
3. Papertake Weekly Challenge - 3 of something
4. Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge - distressing
5. Wild Orchid - stitching
Thanks for taking the time to come visit this morning....now I'm off to clean up the craft room mess before we go feed the horses. Sundance was limping yesterday with a rock bruse on her hoof pad so we have to soak it in Epsom Salts and hot water. Hopefully, it's better today!!
