Welcome crafty friends!
Is it really November already? It was such a hot summer here in our area and I'm thankful for the temperature relief and looking forward to the upcoming holidays. And because it's now sweater weather, the theme for the Double D's new challenge is
Here's the mood board they're sharing...It speaks warm and cozy, right?
And a prize they are offering to one lucky entrant.
I was inspired by all of the photos on the board...
enjoy the little things
There's nothing more warm and cozy than curling up with a cup of hot goodness, a snuggly blanket and a book or beside a warm fire. The knit patterned paper made a perfect background for the cozy card front.
There's lots of dimension on this card front using die cuts and foam tape. I cut a napkin from plaid paper to represent the blanket. The mug is topped with whipped cream and embellished with a plaid heart. I used a shade of gold card stock for the sentiment to highlight the color in the plaid paper. The sentiment is cut twice with the word "little" matted opposite of the other words to make it stand out.

Loving your background and that sweet little plaid winter blanket. That hot cup of cocoa looks delightful and your die cut sentiment is perfect--love how you reversed the colors! mmmmmm
This is awesome Vic and I totally agree! LOVE my hot cocoa on those cold winter nights ... in fact I just stocked up so I would be ready! lol BEAUTIFUL design ... LOVE IT!!
This is fabulous!
The background paper looks so dimensional I thought it was embossed. It somehow reminds me of those little potholders we used to weave when we were kids. Love all the dimension, cool dies, and warm colors! Great card, Vicki!

That background paper is so realistic, I thought it was an embossing folder. I love that you framed the mug with is and added that plaid mat. Your card is my pick of this challenge.
