HYCCT1516 Sending You Warm Hugs

Hi Again Friends!!

This card was created for the Splitcoaststampers Hope You Can Cling To  HYCCT1516 Lisa’s (aka Shoe Girl)  “Hugs!” Challenge along with the Freshly Made Sketches FMS208 Sketch.

The “Hugs!” challenge is to use either an image showing a hug and/or the word hug(s) in the sentiment....it seems that I am a bit short on images with hugs so I chose the “hug” in the sentiment option.

Again, I hope you will have a chance to visit both of the above galleries and possibly take some time to create a card and join in on the fun!!

To create this quick clean and simple (CAS) card:

Ink the Sweet ‘n Sassy Stamps Cup of Cocoa using Stāz-On® Jet Black Ink and stamp onto Whisper White cardstock.

Color the Cocoa Mouse image with an AquaPainter™ and Stampin’ Up Markers- Basic Gray and Real Red.  Color the candy cane and cup directly with the Real Red and Night of Navy Markers.

Add shadows with the Sahara Sand Marker and paint the cup with Frost White Shimmer Paint.

Trim the image and mount onto Real Red and Night of Navy cardstock.

Stamp the sentiment with Memento™ Tuxedo Black Ink onto Whisper White cardstock, create the banner with the Hexagon Punch, mount onto Real Red cardstock (creating  the banner with the Hexagon Punch) and mount onto a piece of Night of Navy cardstock (again, creating the banner points with the Hexagon Punch).

Side View- Isn't Cocoa cute?  Love the expression on his face :-)
Emboss a piece of Whisper White cardstock using the Big Shot™ with a snowflake embossing folder, trim and mount onto a piece of Real Red cardstock, trim and mount onto Night of Navy cardstock, add the Denim  Ribbon along with the Real Red Grosgrain Ribbon (wrapping the ends to the back of the panel) and  mount onto the Whisper White card base.

Add the Cocoa Mouse focal image along with the sentiment using dimensional foam.
Paint the wooden Snowflake  Element with Frost White Shimmer Paint, add to the card front along with Rhinestones to finish off the card.
