Hello everyone!!! I hope you are having a great Monday!! I was up bright and early this morning and went straight to the craft room. I had to finish my Unity Bachelor Bro challenge #4 card that I started on Thursday. The Unity Bachelor Bro Week 4 challenge is to make a recipe card for dinner with the man you love!! We are going to skip dinner and go right to dessert...who doesn't love gingerbread cookies!!!
I hand drew the gingerbread man out of Creamy Caramel, added stickles to the trim, cutout the hat and added the white glittery paper. The cheeks are red liquid pearls, the eyes were drawn on with a black copic and the eye highlight and mouth were made with a gel pen. The Unity Snowflake from the August KOM was stamped on the corners of the recipe with Real Red. He was attached to the background with foam tape and a little gingerbread girl button and bow finish it off.

I made this card for today's CAS challenge on Splitcoast to use the thumping technique.
I worked on my *thumped* background for 2 hours and finally gave up cause it looked like a muddy mess...I cutout some of the thumped leaves and added them to a tree I drew along the side. I hope that still qualifies this for the CAS challenge!!! The Billy image from Clear Dollar Stamps Billy and Maggie Fall Fun set illustrated by Wendy Hall was colored with copics, cutout, and popped up with foam tape. Clouds were sponged in the background and the button, twine, and ribbon finish it off. This also qualifies for several other challenges:
2. The Pink Elephant challenge blog to use a Fall theme
3. Vicki's second Saturday Spotlight with Hidden Potential to dress up trees
4. The Stamp Something Challenge to use the color brown. Brown needed to appear in good supply.
