Hello and welcome. Today is day 3 of Bugaboo's annual Holiday Chaos week of challenges over at Catch The Bug blog. Today is the Anything But A Card day. For my project, I've chosen to make a Christmas stocking stuffer, or it can be used as a hostess gift too. Safely...of course!
I started out by printing the never before used Gingerbread Ornaments image onto Hammermill white card stock then colored it using both prismacolor and copic markers. For the white parts of the candy canes and parts of the gingerbread men and woman, I used a Souffle white pen and a white gel pen for the gingerbread teeth. Once the marker coloring was finished, I added some real red chalk then layered the image and added brads. I then took a cinnamen roll candle I had purchased in Michael's dollar spot a few years ago and added it to a clear cellophane bag. After adding my bag topper, I secured it in place with staples. The final touch was adding some silver snowflake stickers I've had for years.
