Papertrey Ink Flash Sale {Gingerbread Bakery}

It's Flash Sale Time! It's been awhile since I've helped out with the Papertrey Ink Flash Sale, but you'll being seeing something from me about once a month. A few of the designers are taking turns creating something for the sales, and this week is my turn! I'm using one of my all-time favorites: Gingerbread Bakery Stamp Set and the Gingerbread Bakery Die. It is SUCH  fun set that can be used for more than just cards, which I love!

To begin my card, I die cut all of the pieces that I wanted to use from the Gingerbread Bakery stamp set and then had fun stamping them in the color palette that I chose to use. Last year I found that I was particularly drawn to Honey Nut and Cocoa Bean ink to recreate that true gingerbread look. Once everything was stamped, I got to work on a few of the accents I wanted to incorporate! 

The bow at the top, the holly leaves, and berries are all from the Tag Creations: Modern Gift Die. I die cut the holly leaves and then added Mint Julep, Vintage Jadeite, and New Leaf ink . The berries are colored using Sweet Blush ink and the bow is die cut from Sweet Blush cardstock.

The background was created by using the Fanciful Snowflake Background Hot Foil Plate and Champagne Foil. I also added the Border Bling: Skinny Embossed Frame over the top using ScorTape.

From there, I had fun adding all of the pieces onto a panel that was die cut using the Love to Layer: Lovely Brackets using foam squares for dimension. I added glitter here and there for sugary sweetness and sparkle! I had so much fun creating this card for this week's sale! Thanks for fluttering by!
