Deck the halls with boughs of holly! Here’s some cute little guys to add fragrance to the Christmas season.
Don’t forget the candy canes! I love the NEW Tiny Candy Canes die stamped with the NEW Candy Cane Stripes background stamp.
I just think they are so cute die cut in kraft card-stock with the edges inked with Gathered Twigs Distress ink. Yes! They’d make darling gift tags too!
Dies and stamps I used…
Holly Branch die – die cut in white and colored with Copic markers
Ho Ho Holly Leaves die – die cut in white and colored with Copic markers
Jolly Combo stamp
Precious Gingerbread Men die
Gingerbread Decorations die

Next up, the NEW Frosted Pine Trio die, cut and embossed in white card-stock.
Check out the wonderful detail on the trees! I adhered the trees to the card with mounting adhesive squares.
I used Ho Ho Holly Leaves die to embellish the sentiment stamp, Walking Winter Wonderland…and the wonderful NEW Snowflake Arch die as a backdrop for the trees.
Both cards are A-2 size.

Whoa these put you in the mood to start the Xmas cards. That clever use of gingerbread fellows is too cute.
I do like the one with trees done in layers too. Again… Very clever… Hm hint for Friday club?? Hope so!
♥ I ♥ the gingerbread card ♥ Soooo cute!
Love both of your beautiful creations but I think the pine trees are stunning – great job and great cards.
I always love your cards and today was certainly up to your usual fabulous. Loved the m both.
Pam-I learn so much from you!!! You give me so many ideas-but I don’t have time to make them all!!!! These are both terrific!
Each card is adorable. Love the gingerbread guys on that holly branch, but I’m really over-the-moon with the Christmas tree dies.. so beautiful are the trees against that snowflake arch. Terrific use of these pretty new dies on your cards today. TFS & Happy Sunday. Hugs
Good heavens, Pam, you are so creative! I looooove how you showcased the gingerbread men!!!! Outstanding use of the dies!
Wow, wow, wow, Pam, your works of art are really incredible! I am totally pinning and swooning over that gingerbread / branch card!! Hugs, Darnell
Oh, no! Here you go again enabling me! I didn’t think I had to have the gingerbread men before I saw this adorable card. Now they go on my wish list along with those gorgeous trees! Both of these cards are just awesome. I’m convinced your cards could sell snow to an Eskimo!
Absolutely wonderful, Pam! Love those gingerbread men – totally unexpected, fun, and beautiful! Thanks for always inspiring me to think outside my box! Sorry I’ve been MIA lately – very busy. Hugs!!!
OMGoodness! Is this not the cutest card in the history of cards? Hallmark is weeping. lol I adore gingerbread men, I did a trompe l’oeil gingerbread man hanging from a shelf in my kitchen.
I second Jan’s suggestion for club on Friday !!!! Both cards are awesome and I love them both. It would be hard to pick just one. Can’t wait to see them IRL.
These are wonderful, but that first one is amazing!!! So much detail and such a cute idea! LOVE!!!
