It’s
time for the #167 {Cuppa Cocoa or Coffee?} Challenge at The Card Concept!
I
know that most people drink coffee and several of my friends as well as my
father like it black, but I have to “doctor” my coffee with a tablespoon of hot
cocoa and top it off with whipped cream, lol!
So
obviously, I am not a true coffee aficionado and since I am trying to limit my
sugar intake, I do not drink my coffee or hot chocolate often :-)
I do love our inspiration photo though and was inspired by the Nordic patterns on the cups, the overall colors and the theme to create a Clean and Layered card!
I decided to pull out several unused items from my stash- the MFT
Hot Cocoa Cups Die-namics, some retired Stampin’ Up! items- papers, ribbon,
embossing folder and a still current but unloved Sweet ‘n Sassy Stamp set-
Cocoa's Cups!
I also was able to use the Splitcoaststampers’ SC727 Sketch for the layout and am linking to the Stamping Sensations “Anything Goes with Stamping and optional Add A Die”Challenge.
I
hope you have a chance to check out the rest of The Card Concept Design Team
cards and, if you have time, create a card based on our inspiration photo and
join us!
