Today I am showcasing a card that I created using Sunny Studio "Mug Hugs" stamp and die set. I bought this BEFORE Christmas hoping to use it but never did. This is not a Christmas card but more of a "friend" card.
I used the Fab Friday #103 Sketch as my inspiration, though I did place the sentiment banner at the top right of the image rather then the bottom left.
I layered the frame over three pieces of patterned paper from my stash that had pink, green and black in them so I could play with this week's "Color Throwdown" Challenge #424.
I then layered a die cut cup of cocoa that I had stamped onto patterned paper and cut out. I adhered a pink candy cane, some marshmallows and at heart over the cup.
My last step was to stamp the sentiment onto a green banner and adhere it to the card using foam adhesive.
This card was so fun to make and will be using this set again in the near future as I stamped and colored a TON of cute images so they would be ready to make into a card.
I am also entering this card into the Simon Says Stamps "Wednesday Challenge" Blog for "New Something." My stamp set was brand new, never been used before!!
I thank you for taking the time to stop by today!! Have a fabulous Monday!!

Nora! I love this. Awesome colors, love how you were inspired.
This card is really full of 'cheer,' Nora! LOVE the pinks and greens against that black base. Great idea to have a full-on color focal point, and balance it with the two plain cups. Very sweet card! Bev
So sweet! What a great valentine, perfect colors and design. Thanks for joining us at Fab Friday, hope to see you again soon!
What super-cute mugs - must have hot chocolate right away, now! Love it! Thanks so much for playing at Fab Friday!
So cute! I love a black, white and pink card! Great idea with using the 2 images as background and not coloring them...the front most mug really stands out that way! I'm sure a friend will really appreciate this one! Thanks for sharing at Fab Friday!
