This week I was baking up a storm for my son’s Christmas concert at school. Each year they ask for baking donations to sell at the two concert performances to make money for student activities. This year I made oatmeal chocolate chip, ginger cookies and butter cookies that I used cookie cutters in the shapes of trees and gingerbread men. I had a blast making them – too bad I didn’t take a picture of them!
So in honour of that, here’s my card this week… it’s all about the “Frosted Gingerbread” stamp set this week!
I was inspired by the Merry Monday Challenge this week, #184:
I was also inspired by Wendy's card this week; here.

Oh!!!! Ally, if you could have heard me - haha! I opened your blog and said, "Ooh!" I just love this really "sweet" card with the cookies and candies. I love the fabulous layout and and great DP. The sentiment treatment is great too! I love it all, and (well) I sort of want to take a bite out of that little gingerbread girl - hehe! You must have had fun making all those cookies. I used to LOVE making all sort of Christmas goodies too (back in the day). Hugs, sweet friend, and wishing you and your "guys" a blessed Christmas!
Absolutely adorable Ally! Love the angled panel and your sweetly colored image!!
Totally sweet Ally, the papers and layout are so great. We’re hopefully doing some sugar cooking baking at our place tomorrow :)
This is just darling, Ally! I love the color palette, the papers and the sweet layout! I hope you and your precious family have a Merry Christmas! :) Sending hugs your way!

Ally, this is just so darn cute! I am so drawn to thing with angles this year, not to mention your color palette...so appealing. Making a card like this is about as close as I would get to Christmas baking.
So adorable, Ally! LOVE it! So great seeing this beauty in the link up at Merry Monday! xoxo Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Great job...love the colorful sweets but the layered patterned paper is the star of the show in my estimation. Gorgeous and a winner, I think.
Adorable card, I love this layout. Thank you for joining us for Merry Monday.
What wonderful sweet treats, Ally! I'll bet the real ones were delicious! Thanks for sharing this with us at Merry Monday!
I really like the design on this card. So cheerful. (I left a comment on your partridge card also).
