I have a large number of people in my life who love to bake. I don't mind it once and awhile but it isn't my "thing" like it is for some people. The bonus in my world is when I get to be the taste tester of baking experiments even if they don't turn out perfect <wink>. They all say there is a secret ingredient in their baking....won't tell me what of course.......but I think there is a smidge of love in whatever they make.
Add to that some of these same people love gnomes and the new "Baking Gnome" from High Hopes is perfect for making cards for them. I have a number of occasion cards rolling around in my brain for this stamp.......it's just getting the time to get them out of my brain and made! <smile>
After stamping on to alcohol marker friendly paper, I fussy cut him and ran a black marker around the edge to get any white I had missed. I set him aside and found patterned paper from MFT and Lawn Fawn and cut them to fit my A2 size card base.
A stitched tag was the perfect backdrop for this adorable chef so I cut two out of white and red card stock, layered them and added the stamp with foam pop dots. I stamped the sentiment and added it to matching card stock. A die cut spoon and whisk, a bow and some die cut hearts finish off my card.
