Have a Sweet Christmas

Hello crafty friends. Happy Fri-Yay!! 

My card was inspired by Theme Friday's Card Making Fun Hop on Instagram. This week, the theme was Bring on the Bevies—coffee, tea, cocktails, etc., but I chose Hot Cocoa.

I finally got to play with the Pixi Dust Designs - Gingerbread ManGirl Mug Die Set. This set is both adorable and incredibly easy to create with.

I began to cut all the pieces out in assorted colors with the coordinating dies. I used red glitter cardstock for the bow and icing because a little sparkle goes a long way.

Next, I searched through my paper stash and found the Stampin' Up! Gingerbread & Peppermint designer paper, which was perfect. The pattern paper was adhered to a red A2 card base with liquid glue.

I then assembled my mug and all of its parts, including the eyes, nose, lip, bow, icing, and whipped cream. I cut out some snowflakes from shiny shimmer cardstock and adhered them with foam dots.

The sentiment is from C.C. Designs, Mrs. Claus Swissie. I  stamped it with Versamark ink on black cardstock, heat embossed with white embossing powder, and trimmed. I then adhered it with liquid glue to the panel. The card was then completed with all the delicious cookies and candy canes. 

Thank you for dropping in with me today. Have a Fantastic Day!
