Gingerbread Men and Halloween Sale

Hello friends.  I have some sweet trreats for you today.  I found a couple of very sweet cards on the Memory Box blog and recreated them to give you an idea of how to use some of the new Memory Box dies.

Stick It Die Adhesive -- I wrote a couple posts ago that the exciting new Stick It die adhesive was coming to The Stamp Act.  Stick It is a micro-thin double sided adhesive sheet that is specially formulated to work with all kind sof dies and electronic die cutting machines like the Cricket or Cameo.  I have tried it several times and it is easy and works great.  Here's a video with Ken Oliver, the inventor of Stick It, that will show you how it works.  I used Stick It for the tiny details on the gingerbread men below.  I applied Stick It to white cardstock then die cut with the Ginerbread Men Decorations die and adhered the little pieces to the men.  Easy!  Stop in for a demo of Stick It adhesive!

I am sorry this photo isn't very clear.  The little bows are part of the Gingerbread Men die.
