Time for a Hot Drink!!

At Shopping Our Stash the new challenge is "Time for a Hot Drink" for me my hot drink of choice is Coffee although I wouldn't turn down a "cuppa" tea, some hot apple cider or as I chose for my card Hot Chocolate with mini marshmallows of course. So I hope you will join the challenge with a hot beverage. 


I decided to use up some scraps and what better way to do it than the September 2024 sheetload sketch, It is a mini slimline card.  I used some scraps of Echo Park I have been hoarding for a few years they are just too cute, Of course I used a House Mouse Designs stamp, it was a hard choice since I have a tea cup and a coffee cup stamp as well but the patterned paper did the deciding for me. Let it Snow is from Elisabeth Craft designs, the word Snow was cut twice for stability. The enamel dots are so old they were not very sticky so a little dab of glue was added.


Finished the inside with one of my newer sentiments and managed to get it straight and tucked behind the front circle.

I am adding this to;

Jingle Belles Christmas Challenge ~~ While Shepherds Watched their Flocks
