A Warm Welcome with Stampin’ Up!’s Gingerbread House Dies

When you order the products you love for a season, you earn a huge bonus when the products are versatile to be used outside of that season. Let’s say, for example, that you love the gingerbread house in Stampin’ Up!’s Gingerbread House Dies – how fun would it be if that house could be used for, let’s say, a housewarming card or a tag to welcome a new neighbor to the neighborhood? Here’s how that Christmas-themed die might translate to other times of the year:

I cropped the house from the Gingerbread House Dies from three layers of paper – a Crushed Curry piece of the Tea Boutique 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper, a panel of Night of Navy cardstock and the Soft Suede card base. All of the cutouts lead to the “welcome” inside. Here’s a look at the Christmas-themed Sweet Gingerbread Bundle, which includes the Gingerbread House Dies:

I love this house die for a housewarming card, but the sentiments and additional elements in the Warm Welcome Bundle (an early-release from Stampin’ Up!’s January – April 2023 Mini Catalog) are great for a “congratulations on your new home” or “welcome to the neighborhood” card. Here’s a look at the Warm Welcome Bundle:

Here’s a closer look at the layers on my card – three layers are cropped with the house die. The sentiment and sweet heart are on the white panel inside the card.

And here’s a look at the inside of the card:

I had a lot of fun with these colors and couldn’t be happier with the unexpected combination of bright pink, rich yellow, dark blue and brown. If you like this mix of Polished Pink, Crushed Curry, Night of Navy and Soft Suede as much as I do, I hope you’ll save this for future reference:
