Hi, Friends......

Mmmmmm....yummy hot cocoa with whipped cream and a sweet minty candy cane on a very chilly Idaho evening!! I just love that there are Christmas challenges all year round. It gives me wonderful motivation to be making my holiday cards ahead of time and a great excuse to use Christmas memes! :)
 
Here's another "Scraps and Strays" card I made using a leftover cocoa image from the Winnie & Walter Freebie: Daily Grind Collection Vol. 1 - Holiday Mint.    I even had the stray sentiment floating about in my stash and layered coordinating scraps together for a fun and festive card!! Yay!!

I drew in some of the layers of whipped cream with a Distress Marker....very daring of me!!  lol... and also put a layer of Wink of Stella over it, but you can't see the shimmer in the photo.  :(

Products used include:
Daily Grind Collection Vol. 1 - Holiday Mint
Winnie & Walter - Sketchy Thoughts stamp set
Versamark Ink
WOW! Embossing Powder - Opaque Bright White Regular
Winnie & Walter - Essentials: Audrey Cutaways die set (has scallops)
Winnie & Walter - Essentials: Katharine Cutaways die set
Scraps from DCWV and Core'dinations
Distress Marker in Antique Linen
Zig - Wink of Stella Clear Glitter Brush Pen
Twine from stash

Hope you enjoyed this card that might not be quite as out of season as it seems!! We are in a winter weather pattern right now in Idaho....we had blowing snow all day long and temperatures predicted to be in single digits tonight.  Brrr.... Sending sweet and warm wishes to you!!!
