Here is an adorable card featuring a gingerbread couple made using the Sweetest Star stamp set and some non-traditionally Christmas dsp.
Colours used in this card are:
To recreate the gingerbread couple card, you will need:
Pecan Pie card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – one for the inside
Country Lace dsp – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Country Woods dsp – 5⅜” by 1”
Basic White card – 4½” by ⅜”
Scrap Basic White card
The Country Lace dsp was adhered to one of the 5½” by 3¾” panels of Basic White card.

The strip of Country Woods dsp was then added over top, and a length of White Baker’s Twine wrapped around the panel. The whole piece was then glued to the Pecan Pie card front.

Two gingerbread shapes were stamped in Early Espresso ink onto scrap Basic White card. These were punched out using the Sweetest Star Punch.

I used the following Blends to colour in the images – Light Pecan Pie and Dark Melon Mambo for the lady and Dark Pecan Pie and Dark Boho Blue for the man. These were added to the card front on Dimensionals.

The sentiment was stamped in Early Espresso ink onto the thin strip of Basic White card. I flagged the ends with Scissors and added it to the card front.
