Santa's Cookies


If it was too early for Halloween, it's probably way too early for Christmas. I think I must be in the holiday spirit! For the first time, City Crafter's challenge is a sketch challenge. Here's the sketch:
Here's my card:
Isn't this the sweetest little girl with her little chubby hands rolling dough? One of Lauren's first memories has to be making sugar and gingerbread cookies with us. Several pictures show Lauren absolutely covered in flour! This little girl is flanked by gingerbread men.
I didn't have one gingerbread stamp the right size! I used the gingerbread pattern from the Cutting Cafe. One thing that's great about digital stamps, they can be any size! I used my copics and colored pencils to color them and puff paint for the decorations. I added some little bells to my crinkle ribbon, along with some metallic floss. That red gingham scallop is made with Papertrey Ink's large scallop die. Are you getting in the holiday spirit? Or is it a little hard with all this heat?
