Greetings to all of you and welcome to my second Christmas card of the year. Yes, I did say second-I made a Snowman in January of this year so technically this is my second. This card came about because of the Tea pot Challenge over at SCS. Our challenge was to use a Gingerbread image. Well that wasn't hard for me as I love Gingerbread!!!
Here is the card and matching envelope together. If you can't tell how much I love Gingerbread after this card-there is no way I will be able to convince you....lol This image is from High Hopes called Gingerbread Couple. I bought this from Stamp & Create with a gift certificate that I won from the challenges I play....how cool is that. I love this stamp!
See what I did with the stamp. I cut it in half and use the girl on the bottom and the boy on the top....pretty cool huh! This is the sentiment on the inside:Cookies and cocoa
and gingerbread spice...
Hope your holidays
are full of
everything nice.
These are the removable tags out of the pocket. One is a Gingerbread Recipe and one is a Gingerbread Cookie recipe. Both of these are stamps that I have collected. Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you are inspired to make some "Gingerbread"!!!

Wowza! Talk about gingerbread fun. Not only a fabulous design with all the trimmings but recipes too. It doesn't get better than that!
Wow, gingerbread overdose! :) Great card and envelope though, I might actually bake some gingerbread soon again, I've got the best recipe ever! ;)
Loads of gingerbread fun on this card. Love the happy couple :) I love the smell of gingerbread but alas am allergic to ginger so can't eat it - you'll have to eat mine for me LOL! Great set and wonderfully done. Have a great weekend.
Gorgeous card, love all the Gingers!

Wow, this is gorgeous!
I had a feeling you liked gingerbread, Gingerbeary! This is just like something magical you'd see at Santa's workshop. Even all the punching trims look like fancy icing!
Truly amazing and fun card. I love all the details, your coloring, and wonderful recipes. The mint is the icing on the cake. Good luck in the challenges as this is a winner in my book. Thanks so much for joining us at CCAYR with this gorgeous creation. Have a fab weekend! "Love & Hugs" Carol
