We hope you'll play along!  The LEAD of this challenge will be invited as a Guest Designer in a future challenge!  Please visit the Curtain Call Challenge blog for all the challenge info and deadline.

I took my inspiration from a few of the photo's elements, including the gingerbread shaped marshmallow and the plaid napkin.  One of the gingerbread images from the Paper Smooches Giddy Gumdrops set is my focal image.  I stamped the image in white pigment ink on a piece of brown cardstock, then heat embossed the image to give the image an icing-like look.  The details were filled in with a Pico Embellisher, which is also dimensional.  

The image was as adhered to a red die cut circle using foam tape.  I placed the circle on an olive cardstock panel over a pair of coordinating layered paper panels.  The set's "spreading good cheer" sentiment was stamped in white on a fishtail flag strip and heat embossed, then added to the card with one edge tucked beneath the image panel.
