It's time for our monthly Design Team DARE at Your Next Stamp!!

This month, we have been "dared" to create something that will

What a fun theme, and I knew right away what I wanted to make!

I have this awesome candy cane stripe glitter paper from DCWV, and I thought it would look so pretty paired with the new Gingerbread Man Die Set!

I made a little box... I followed this tutorial to make a gable box, but instead of using the top flaps to create a handle, I just tucked all the flaps inside to reinforce the sides of the box. Then, I used my glittery paper to wrap around the box, and added a cute border with the Skinny Scallop Border Die.

    

  

I tucked a bag full of peppermints into the box, tied it off with a bow, and added the cute little Gingerbread Man to the top with a mini clothes pin.

    

   

Isn't he the CUTEST?!

I used a couple of Black Gumdrops for his eye, and some Candy Land Glittered Gumdrops for his gumdrop buttons. :)

The little squiggles of frosting are covered in Lily White Fine Glitter from Doodlebug... it got a bit messy, but it still turned out pretty cute!

To finish him off, I just added some rosey cheeks with my RV10 Copic Marker.

        

   

Such a sweet, simple, and SPARKLY gift, don't you think? :)
