With Sugar On Top Scrapbook Layout!

Karla here today to share an 8 1/2 x 11 scrapbook layout showing our gingerbread house the girls and I created last year. The funny thing about gingerbread houses - in my experience anyways - is they never quite turn out to look like they do on the box, lol! But we sure do have lots of fun making them!

Of course, I had to use the Gingerbread House stamp set on my layout! I stamped the fun gumdrops from the set onto some white carstock that I had misted with Glimmer Mist sprays and fussy cut them out before adding some sugary Stickles. I even stamped directly onto my photo (seen above) with the awesome sentiment "Goody Goody Gumdrops". On the bottom right corner I stamped the Merry Christmas sentiment above the handwritten date.

I had almost as much fun creating this layout as I did making the gingerbread house ;) You can see all the details on the products used in this layout on my blog post.

Here's a look at this cute stamp set -

Gingerbread House

Thanks for stopping by today, and I hope you have a happy, crafty week!

Double Dipping!

Hello fans!

Today I am double dipping into the Gingerbread jar...

as I use the Gingerbread set, 

from Pretty Cute Stamps, to inspire you!

First up...

Christmas...

Admittedly, I am terrible at sending our Christmas cards. I send all sorts of cards...

but December is so craycray, than I just don't get around to doing it.

But...this Gingerbread house is so sweet! It is definitely getting popped into the mail today!

Don't you love the candy colors?

Your holiday card will pop among the red/green and blue/white cards on someone's mantle when you use a candy colored color combo!

Next...

New Year's Resolutions...

If you are saying good bye to gummies and hello to the gym...

here is one last hurrah to get you motivated..

or at least smiling!

I'm sure you are now inspired to be all goody-goody on your new year's diet!

But, come back on Saturday.

I have one more design using Gingerbread House for next month's PCS challenge!

It is so sweet that you won't want to miss it!

Thanks for stopping by during this busy holiday season.

I hope your "to do" list is getting checked off...

no stress...

lots of love and smiles!

Sweet Gingerbread House

Hi!  Janna here and today I am bringing

you this fun gingerbread house card that I made using the

Gingerbread House stamp set :)

I haven't actually ever made a real gingerbread house, but I sure had a

lot of fun creating this one!

This was so easy to stamp, because it's one image.  There are also some

really sweet sentiments in this set!  It was just so much fun to decorate this up.
I stamped the image and then colored it with markers and did some paper-piecing with white cardstock for the candy parts.

For all the details of products I used, please visit my blog,

For this and more great sets to use to make your holiday cards, be sure

to visit the Pretty Cute Stamps store!

Happy Stamping!

Janna :)
