Happy Holidays - Gingerbread Holly

 Happy Holidays

How cute are these little gingerbread characters? 
For this stepper card, I used a centre step card die template, a square die and 3 rectangular dies for my base card. I used Candycane Fun from Polkadoodles Gingerbread Holly Collection. I coloured using ProMarkers. I attached a few extra candycanes and some holly from Merry Santa Christmas Stamp Set. Backing paper is from Winnie Christmas Wishes - Paper Pack 1.
