Good Morning Sistahs!
Welcome to yet another fun and wonderful Kitchen Sink Monday! It's hard to believe the Holidays are just around the corner, and I have plenty of individual cards to make. It has been a while since I've created an acetate card, so I decided now would be the perfect time. I have a Secret Santa gift to get ready by Wednesday and thought this card would be perfect for the occasion.
I used the Multi-Step Build a Garland set from a recent Kitchen Sink release. I fell in LOVE with the gingerbread man and am so glad I finally inked him up! I stamped the image out of order, and LOVE how he came out.
Step 2: Creamy CaramelStep 3: Creamy Caramel
Step 1: More Mustard
The More Mustard gives him that nice warm color without being too yellow. Once I stamped him, I decided he needed some "frosting" so I used liquid applique to create the piped frosting feel on his arms, legs, and smile. What gingerbread man would be complete without a little bling for his "gumdrop buttons" and eyes? Finally I stamped "Season's Greetings" on the inside and now it's ready for my Secret Santa. What do you think? Do you likey?
Now that you've seen my creation, it's time to blop on over and check out what the rest of the wickedly talented Kitchen Sink Crew has created just for you!
Be sure to stop by on Wednesday....it's my birthday and you are going to get a chance to win a fun goodie package from me! Woo Hoo!
