Step 1

Apply your  chosen structured base in Ideal Pink, using JimmyGel, 1 Step, Extreme Builder, and finish file if needed.
Apply Flat Matte top coat, cure for 60 seconds and then cleanse the surface to reveal the matte finish.
Create the outline of the Gingerbread Man using Can You Dig It ButterCream, and then fill the shape.  Cure for 60 seconds.

Step 2

Now it's time to add the icing using a striping brush, a Stylus and Primary White Gel Paint or Just White ButterCream. Cure for 60 seconds.

Step 3

Use Cranberry Craze ButterCream to go over the smiley face. Use Movie Under The Moonlight ButterCream to add some tiny eyebrows. Cure for 60 seconds.

Step 4

No Gingerbread Man would be complete without his Gum Drop Buttons!
Use a Stylus/Dotting Tool to add two little glittery dots to his belly using Emerald Green Glitter Gel. Cure for 60 seconds.
Finish with your choice of top coat using either Super Shiny or Top Gloss. Cure for 60 seconds.  If using Super Shiny, allow to cool for 30-60 seconds before cleansing the surface.
Your super cute Gingerbread Man is now complete!
