Kitchen Sink Crew Challenge #19


I loved all these Christmas goodies in the new Multi Step Build a Garland by Kitchen Sink. Lisa had a great sketch to use. I decided to go with riding hood red and soft suede for the card stock colors because of the gingerbread men and the peppermint. The candy striped paper from Basic Grey help repeat the striped pattern for the card.
Ink colors used were all Memento inks: ladybug, rich cocoa, dessert sand. I used my new Martha Stewart punch for the edge of the red panel. Frosted lace Stickles add the little touch of icing trim for the gingerbread men, and the little reddish beads make great buttons and eyes. The rhinestone squares give it a finishing touch. Check out those new Kitchen Sink Christmas stamps. They will bring merriment to your season!!!
