The current challenge over at Craftyhazelnut's Christmas Challenge is 'Spread a little joy and love' - and this really happy image seems to be full of joy:
I can't help smiling when I see that happy face, saying 'Here's some joy, love me but please don't eat me' :) Am I alone in not eating gingerbread men, jelly babies, chocolate bunnies and the like without a pang of guilt I wonder?
I used:
- 6" x 6" square Kraft card
- Penny Black Stickeroo from the 'Snowy Christmas' sheet
- main background paper from Raspberry Road's Christmas Collection (free with QCME magazine) and all other papers from Echo Park's 'Season's Greetings' paper pad - wahoo, that pad is almost used up - that would be a first here
- strip of Christmas ribbon - too nice to hide and too bulky to tie a bow with
- sentiment was stamped using a SU stamp from the 'Joyous Celebrations' set, SU 'Old Olive' ink pad, punched with a Hobbycraft label punch, threaded with green cord and fixed with a brad from a set by My Mind's Eye called 'Decorative Brads - Red'
Am also entering this into Craftyhazelnut's Christmas Challenge Extra for August - where it's always 'Anything Goes'.

ReplyDeleteI don't suffer from any guilt about eating the things you mentioned! I am a cruel and heartless woman!

So cute and such a happy card! You're not alone in thinking/feeling that it's just the rest of us won't admit it 'cos we will look like nutters lol!
ReplyDeleteI always go for the head first - that way he can't see me eating him little by little lol! Karen x

Brilliant is your image Di so happy go lucky chap just right for Hazels challenge he's really joyful looking x
ReplyDeleteThis is one very cute gingerbread man die. Sweetie! X
ReplyDeleteThis has me smiling ear-to-ear! It's adorable, Di! Love the design and layering ~ everything frames the jolly gingerboy perfectly. (I don't care for gingerbread men either, but all other men ... well, you expected me to say it, be honest!!)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card, Di, love that ribbon and the gingerbread man is fab - he does look as though he is jumping for joy. I most certainly do feel guilty eating any of your list, twice over! One for what they are ... I mean where do you start, feet or head, either seems cruel, and two, well, all that sugar is bad for me, I really shouldn't :( I won't be joining you over at Hazel's challenge this week - no time. Hopefully next week. Hugs, Elizabeth xx
ReplyDeleteLove the smiley gingerbread - super card for both CHNC challenges - hope to see you again soon, Di x
ReplyDeleteAlways had to line me jelly babies up and eat the legs followed by the arms and last with a sorry the head. Sweet little gingerbread on yer card Miss. Hugs Mrs a.
