Gingerbread Card and a fun announcement!

Hi Everyone!
Wow, what a whirlwind! The Holidays are so beautiful but so busy :) I feel like we haven't gotten out of our car for 3 weeks :) Well, we are home and on our way to getting back to normal. I hope you all had a fabulous Christmas and preparing for a FUN New Year! 

So I have had a few AWESOME bits of news lately some I can't announce yet :(  but one I can and that's... I'm going to be a guest designer for Scrappy Mom Stamps for the month of June! I'm super excited and just LOVE their stamps - Thank you so much Tammy and Melanie! 

Here is the card I submitted for the GD spot :)

The paper is from American Crafts and that fabulous Chevron pattern is made with the Chevron and Rick Rack Die
