Gingerbread Girl - Double Fun Fold

This is fun card to make using the Gingerbread Bundle, but instead of a Gingerbread Boy, it's a Gingerbread Girl using the eyelashes for the eyes and the rosy checks.  She has bow for her hair and a scarf.  I was inspired by a card from Angela McKay.

Here are my instructions:

Stamp Set:  Gingerbread Man (Girl)

Cardstock:  Real Red, Pecan Pie, Basic White, Garden Green, 6” x 6” Christmas Tags & More Mix and Match Specialty Paper

Ink:  Garden Green, Early Espresso, Petal Pink, Versa Mark, White Embossing Powder

Other:  Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine, Scoring Tool, Bone Folder, Embossing Buddy, Gingerbread Man Dies, Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder, Paper Snips, Heal Tool, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Glue Dots, and Red and White Adhesive Backed Peppermints

 

1.     The base of the card is Real Red cardstock cut at 4-1/4” x 5-1/2” and set aside.

2.    The gatefold of the card is Real Red cardstock cut at 4-1/4” x 11” and scored at 2” and 3-3/4” on each end.  Fold in and burnish with a Bone Folder and then it in and then out.

3.    The inside Basic White cardstock is cut at 4-1/4” x 3-1/4”.  Ink up the sentiment “Sugar & Spice and everything nice” in Garden Green ink.

4.    Cut the green plaid Specialty Paper at 7/8” x 4” two times and adhere at each end of the 4-1/4” x 5-1/2” Real Red base card with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

5.    Cut Real Red cardstock at 1-3/4” x 4” two times for the front of the gatefold card and insert into the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder and run through the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine.  Adhere to the front panels with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

6.    Cut the red and green plaid at 1-1/2” x 4” two time for the inside panels and adhere.

7.    Use the Embossing Buddy on the Pecan Pie cardstock and ink up the Gingerbread stamp with Versamark ink.  Adhere the White Embossing Powder and shake off the excess.  Use the Heat Tool to emboss the powder until it is shiny.  Die cut with the Gingerbread Man Dies.  You need to use the Paper Snips to round off her one arm.

8.    Use the face stamp with the eyelashes for the girl in Early Espresso ink and use the Petal Pink ink for her cheeks.

9.    Die cut a bow and a scarf with Garden Green cardstock.  Adhere with Glue Dots.

10.  Adhere three Red and White Adhesive Backed Peppermints for her buttons.

11.   Die cut the candy cane twice, once with Real Red cardstock and one with Basic White cardstock.  Glue together to make one candy cane and adhere to her hand with Glue Dots.

12.  Use Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back of her head to adhere to the top of the front flap.
