This is my postcard for the UKStampers forum swap for November. I started with some red card cut to 6 x 4 inches and stamped with a Lawn Fawn script stamp the words 'Merry Christmas' in Versamark ink. I then used detail white embossing powder and heat set with a heat gun.
The gingerbread man was then diecut out of Kraft card with a Sizzix die through the BigShot. I embellished his arms and legs with white card trimmed into strips with a pair of pinking shears and backed his eyes and mouth with a bit of scrap black card.
I used black and white Posca pens to decorate his eyes and add buttons and cut out a dickie bow in green patterned paper and adhered as shown.
I then edged the card with gold Krylon Pen and sprayed the completed card with matt acrylic lacquer to protect it through the post.
Hope the recipient likes him !
