Not an original idea at all but this is for Limited Supply Challenge LSC192. Found here.. I did not use new stamps either, these are old ones. I made a card like this at a stamp camp in Omaha, NE a few years ago and loved these little gingerbread men. I don't think I ever used this stamp set for anything else. I stamped the line flower with Chocolate Chip ink on Chocolate chip cs and then cut him out. Then cut out a layer in real read just a little larger than the flower, added a freehand mouth and eyes, then 1/4" circle punches for the cheeks, a little liquid applique and a heart brad and he was done.

Adorable and just love your creativity in creating those gingerbread men out of flowers. Very unique and very convincing. Great card for the challenge.

Great idea. Come to think of it, the technique I learned for embroidering flowers wth 5 petals was to place them as the head, arms and legs of a little stick figure, so it makes good sense. They look good enough to eat .
