SSS32 Gingerbread Boys



Here we are with another Sweet Stop Sketch Challenge and for today's card I used a digital image from SNSS, 'Gingerbread Couple'. The image consists of a boy and a girl gingerbread, but I chose to use only the boy image for this card. I paper pieced the little outfit, using the same dotted pattern paper as I used for the first square layer beneath the sentiment.. After paper-piecing and coloring the image, I covered the 'bread' portions with Crystal Effects to give it the 'shine' factor. As you can tell, I wrote the sentiment freehand...this card will be used for one of my grandson's and I wanted something that would work for him....so I just decided to write it out by hand, nothing fancy about the sentiment at all!
Be sure to visit the blogs of the other Sugar Baby Team Members and see their fantastic cards for this sketch.
I hope everyone is enjoying the weekend with family and friends. My schedule for this coming week is super busy and I may not get much stamping done. But, I'll definitely be back next Saturday with the new SSS33 challenge.
Oh, and don't forget to check out the Sweet N' Sassy Stamps Website....Korin has 2 new digi sets posted and they are super cute!
If you get a chance to join us for the SSS32 Challenge...be sure to post a link to your card on the Sweet Stop Blog...I'd love to see what all of you do with the sketch.
Spend time with family and friends and then,
Make time to create, but remember to have fun and enjoy the experience!
