Gingerbread Wonderland...
It has been somewhat of a tradition to visit the "Gingerbread Wonderland" at the arboretum by my house. Every year, they put on a display of gingerbread creations made by local schools, clubs and families.
It is so neat to see all the adorable little houses all lined up.
I am always inspired to create my own gingerbread house after visiting, which I made yesterday with a little help from my 3 year old:
Here is the finished product:
I used one of those Wilton kits (no, I am not going to take the credit that I baked the gingerbread myself, but I did assemble the house). I think it came out pretty good for an amateur, that is..
Lastly, I made a couple of layouts. One using my old Basic Grey Mellow paper:
This one with the AMM Dec. Kit:
And this one with some Christmas paper from a My Mind's Eye paper pad that I picked up in Michael's a few weeks ago:
That is all for now..Must get started on my holiday baking..well..maybe tomorrow..

Those ginger bread displays are amazing. And frankly, I think getting a gingerbread house together is taking credit for quite a lot - I often fail at that part! Yours looks great!
