Looking for an adorable holiday card project as we countdown to Christmas? This Gingerbread design is simple and fun!
Christmas cookies are a holiday tradition in so many homes. Our Designer Amy said, “When I think of Christmas baking, gingerbread cookies are always the first thing that comes to mind. I designed this card to look like a fresh batch of cookies cooling on a baking rack.” This design is so festive and fun. Follow along as Amy shows us how to recreate this classic card.
- Start off with an A2 kraft panel.
- Die cut a red panel from the 2302 Cupcakes, Cocoa & Candy Canes 6×6 using the 5013D Nested Rectangle Small Stitch die.
- Cut a pale gray panel with the 5827D Cheesecloth die. Trim to fit on top of the Nested Rectangle panel. Back the Cheesecloth with vellum and adhere to the Rectangle.
- Cut the various pieces for two gingerbreads using the 5178D Mr. Mrs. Gingerbread die.
- Adhere the parts to build the two gingerbread cookies. For ease, use a black marker to customize those pieces.
- Place the cookies on top of the Cheesecloth.
- Stamp the sentiment using the 36045 Let it Snow Set stamp.
- Cut the sentiment using the 5012D Nested Circle Sm Stitch die.
