Isn't this stamp the cutest thing???? It's another Artful Stamper stamp, and it's called Ginger and Coco .
I stamped it on watercolor paper using Onyx Black Versafine ink, then embossed with JudiKins Detail Clear embossing powder. The stamped image was colored with Tombow (water based) markers. The shading and blending was done with a damp paint brush.
I stamped the cup portion again on a scrap of watercolor paper, cut it out and popped it up to add a little dimension.
For the icing on the hands and feet I used White Opal Liquid Pearls, then put Stardust Stickles over the top when it was dry.
The tag was made with my Tag Trio set from Spellbinders. The word "Sweet" is from a Gina K stamp set called North Pole . It was tied with a piece of May Arts silver metallic string .. The brown cardstock is Suede Brown Prismatics , and the blue carstock is from the Baby Blue Prismatics collection, and the red cardstock is Classic Red prismatics.
Did you notice anything different about the two cards? If you did, then you aren't seeing things! LOL! On the second card I added dots of Baby Blue Liquid Pearls then sprinkled Crystal Art Institute Glitter over them. I just thought it was too plain without those. But now I'm not sure if I like it better or not.
Thanks for stopping by. I hope you're all having a great week!

You're right! That is just about the most adorable stamp ever. The baby blue liquid pearls are the perfect embellishment. How did you fare through Gustav? I became quite concerned for you when I saw it heading straight for Shreveport.
So very sweet! No pun intended of course!
Many Blessings,

Oh so sweet! Love all the dimension this has too. Yummy enough to want to take a sip of sweet hot chocolate but the gingerbread man is too cute to eat!
Too cute!! I think adding those liquid pearls enhanced the original design, but they're both adorable! I love the colors of brown, blue, and red, and that prism paper looks so textured and fabulous - I know I'm going to love using it!!
