Peeking Gingerbread Kids

Hi Crafty Friends,
More Christmas in JULY! I love all the Gingerbread Men from Digi Doodle Studios. I made a fun stenciled Gingerbread man background for the Digi Doodle Studios Peeking Gingerbread Kids. I printed them on kraft paper and white paper then paper pieced the bows onto the kraft paper, then fussy cut them out. They are such a cute pair.

Make Crafty Friends Q & A:
Q: Do you bake gingerbread men at Christmas?
A: Me? No but my mom does!
