Have one Ginger Good Holiday

Today at Catch the Bug there is a new Stella Says Sketch.  And I am trying to keep up with making some Christmas cards so I had to sneak one in before the end of the month.  The image is from a set called Gingerbread Candy Set and the sentiment is from TLC, Create.

Hello Gnome

I have so many designs of things that I want to do, but then I get caught up with having to make the required cards for my DT work, family/friend birthdays/events and then that regular job that interferes with my crafting. So I was so excited today when I got a chance to make a fun card for my OWN stash. This is using mint and black some colors that I really like.  I took an image that from Pattie's Creations Party Gnomes and only used one of them. I added Glossy Accents to the heart.
