Hello everyone: The cozy season is here and with it comes warm sweaters and mittens, hot and delicious coffee and cocoa, with all kinds of goodies on top.
This card really warms me up, I have a hot mug of strong coffee with a bit of almond creamer to sweeten it up.
The images are from a very old Cornish Heritage Farms set called "The Cafe", I love all the images of tea pots, coffee percolators, mugs, cake, muffins, etc.
I stamped the images with Stazon black ink on a piece of Arches watercolor paper that my granddaughter gave me to try, the texture is not as smooth as my other papers but I love it, perfect for water coloring. I colored the images with SU markers and an aqua painter. The pattern paper and the ribbon are from my stash, the sentiment is from a retired SU set called "Snow Day", super cute snow man in this set.
*****************************************************************
I always finish the inside of my cards, this saves me a lot of time when I mail them.
The sentiment is from a Power Poppy set called Ponsettia and the little mug from another Power Poppy set called Merry Littles.
I'm playing along with the following challenges.
The Holly and Ivy Christmas Challenge #18 "Anything Christmas Goes"
Tuesday Throwdown Challenge #367 "Watercolor"
Christmas at Sweet Stamping "Anything Christmas Goes"
