Well, it's kind of a story. I had dug out Christmas dies to do a sample for the Dirty Dozen Christmas card challenge and made this paper pieced candy cane for it, well I did a handful not sure which one I wanted in the stocking. And then I started looking at the Decorators warehouse site as it was next on my to-do list. and those trees... all those totally cram packed sweet filled trees were just so mind boggling to me, I started diecutting and gluing together and or distress inking the edges of a bunch of different candy cane dies in my studio. and then came out the gingers. And this is where I stopped. So, I have a handy little pile to jump start Christmas in July in my studio. Thanks for this challenge Julie & tfl. PS this was an off an on project for a few nights after work. I didn't cut and ink and glue it all in one day.

Oh my, I love all those candy canes and the cute gingerbread men. That must have taken a while but so worth it.

These are fabulous candy canes Stacy, what a great idea. I bet they were time consuming as Brenda says, but they are so great I think worth the effort.

Yep, sometimes you get started and you can't stop because everything is turning out so adorable. These are all so cute, Stacy, and you do have lots of cuteness to go in your Christmas stash.
