Cup of Holiday Cheer

Hello, everyone!  Today I'm sharing another holiday card!  I'm still playing along in  Beccy's Place 9th Annual Month of Holiday Cards, so for the alphabet prompt, I've chosen C for Cup, Cocoa, and Cheer.  I'm also excited  to be playing in the Fall/Winter 2021 Coffee Lovers Blog Hop!

My card features a yummy cup of hot cocoa, with lots of whipped cream, and of course, a gingerbread man!  I do love the gingers!


I used one of the images from a new digital set from Beccy's Place called Christmas Cheers.  Before printing, I digitally added the cute gingerbread man from Beccy's Place Gingerbread set so that he's peeking out from behind the cup.  

I coloured the image with markers and die-cut with a cross-stitched oval and layered onto a pink scalloped oval.  The sentiment is also from Beccy's Place Christmas Cheers, which I printed on pink cardstock.  The green snowflake paper is a freebie from Free Pretty Things for You.

Fantastic card Kitty, I love the colour combination! Great idea to add the gingerbread man to the image, he looks super cute peeking out from around the cup. The pink border around the image panel is beautiful, what a lovely die. Well done!
Cheers,

Pink and green combo makes for an unconventional Christmas color combo. But it looks great together. Love the sweet little gingerbread man.
