My card for Dina's iced gingerbread--I used white opaque pigment ink to stamp the gingerbread boys one at a time (as the cardstock soaks up some of the ink) and embossed them in white embossing powder. I colored in the details with colored pencils and used a tan colored pencils to shadow around the images to pop them up a bit. I wasn't happy with just a one layer card and I didn't have any Christmas Washi (can you believe it) so I fished out some ric-rac as an EMBELLISHMENT, not a layer! LOL

Oh my .... I sense a gingerbread wish coming on .... need to get distracted 'away from' the carbs!!! Aha! With this delightful inspiration, perhaps I should aim self for some card stock, rubber, & inks! Thanks for this sweet treat for the eyes!

Eep! They're adorable, and RICK RACK! Love that little touch - one of my childhood loves. Thank you so much for playing along with my Falliday Fest challenge, for making a sample, and hostessing, for all your encouragement and all the things!

The ric rac is perfect!!! You can't have gingerbread men without it. ;) I like the shadow around them, that was the 2nd thing I noticed. They are adorable and good enough to eat. Oops, did I say that out loud!?!
