Paper Trail: BBTB2 Challenge-Gingerbread

Welcome to my blog and our BBTB2 Challenge for this week. Our hostess this week is Julie Huxter, please visit this wonderfully talented Brit and also our other fabulous designers for our challenge of the "Gingerbread" man. I do not have any of the carts that have the gingerbread men, so this was a challenge, lol. Thank goodness I had some extra moments. During this time of the year I forget how much fun a good challenge is, thanks Julie.
I used BasicGrey for my background papers "Dasher", I love this series. The card is 6"X6". The gingerbread man was created using "My Community", the boy, I cut then trimmed him into the gingerbread man. The candycane is from a sizzix die as well as the photo corners which are a snowflake cut in half. The tag is from a QK set. All coloring was done with Copic markers. He is all set for some winter games. This is our last challenge of the year and so with that I would like to take this time to wish all of you a very Merry Christmas and a fantastic New Year. Thanks so much for visiting my blog, for leaving comments and for sharing all of your fantastic inspiration. Hugs

Good Reads:

It has been awhile since I have posted a good read, it is definitely not that I have not had one, just really not one I felt compelled to comment on, until now:

"The Fifth Gospel" Ian Caldwell, Pocket Books, An imprint of Simon & Schuster, Inc. 2015

The best of reads I have had in several years, masterful plot and execution of characters, you will feel part of Vatican City and all of its history, wow, 10 years to write, most truly one of those read over again books. So much fodder for thought.
