Tim Holtz Gingerbread House Die with Shari Carroll

Happy Friday! It’s Shari here with another house from the Tim Holtz Village dies series.

When I first thought of doing this Gingerbread house, I was thinking pastels and sugary treats. But then my inner grey kicked in and I went with modern Peppermint inspired colors.

I used the Simon Says Stamp Slate cardstock as the base for my house, it’s so stunning and contrasts well against the white and red.

The roof is made of three colors Fog, Schoolhouse Red and White. Using color cardstocks makes coordinating easy, I used less than a full sheet of each color.
