Gingerbread Christmas Card

Created this Christmas card using a Gingerbread theme for a child.

Used Kraft cardstock for base. Used Christmas wrapping paper for layer. Used 6 pieces of Martha Stewart paper tape.
Used a new Martha Stewart stamp set for Gingerbread. Michaels daily deal Tues 12/11 was 70% off MS Christmas Crafts. Used a Inkadinkado stamp for sentiment. Added a ribbon bow.

Photographed it on my Christmas tree:
