ColourQ Challenge #164


Wow...this has to be one of the most fun color combinations I have seen on ColourQ, not something I would have ever put together but they are just so festive combined.  My sister sent me an email asking me to make a thank you card for the caterers they are using for her work tree trimming party. The theme for the party is gingerbread men and she really wanted me to reflect that in my card.  In my stash I found this adorable little gingerbread lady cookie and gingerbread men cookie cutters to use to embellish my card.  I did not have any paper to represent both the More Mustard or Cajun Craze, so my gingerbread lady cookie is the More Mustard and the stamped images are Cajun Craze.  I felt it needed something to dress it up a bit so I pulled out my fabulous scor tool from Stampin Up and it did the trick.  Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek!
