Santa Mug!

Hello, everyone! Happy Wednesday!
Since we didn't have a Tuesday Night Live last night due to a hockey game, I decided to do a video featuring this card! The game was Hockey Fights Cancer night, which is near and dear to our hearts because we've lost many to that horrible disease.

And, since the Fall and Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop is still going on, I wanted to do a fun, quick card for you guys! I created a short video to show you how I put this together.

I started with the Mini Slim Backdrop cut out of red cardstock. I added the Signature A2 Polka Dot Cover Plate cut to 3 and 1/2 in wide, then layered the black Mini Slim Frame over that to cover those cut edges. It was clever for Jillian to design it that way so that you can use A2 sized cover plates for Mini Slim cards!

Then I cut the mug from the Hug in a Mug Die Set, which I use a lot. I thought I need some whipped cream and decided Santa's beard was perfect for that. so I cut Santa out and cut off the beard, turned it upside down and now we have whipped topping! After the video I decided it needed a little bit of a shadow, so I added a black shadow after the video was complete. I cut the steam out of acetate, which is from the Cozy Cup Die Set. The cute little Holly is from Sam E. Snowman, and there's also a similar die in Santa and Friends.
I used a Sentiment Strip for the belt and the buckle from the Witch Hat Shaker Die Set. The sentiment is from Just BeClaus and stamped on a So Many Stitched Sentiment Strips die cut.
Such a fun and quick card!


Here is my video, enjoy!

Have a blessed rest of the week!

2022 Fall/Winter Blog Hop Week

Welcome to the 2022 Fall/Winter Blog Hop week!
Jillian is proud to be a Super Sponsor!

The main coffee blog is here: http://coffeelovingcardmakers.com/20650

Today I have a fun Mini Slimline card, that I love how it came out!


One again, I am loving the non traditional colors of Red and shades of Turquoise.
This PhotoPlay paper was perfect for what I wanted!
I started with the Mini Slimline Backdrop cut in red cardstock. I then used the Polka Dot Stencil and some Delicata Ruby Red Shimmer Ink, very subtly (you can see it in the photo below), and then added the Mug from Hug in a Mug Die Set and cut the three mugs using the PhotoPlay 6 x 6 pad from my stash.
Adding some pine from the Classic Candle Die Set, and Budding Branches topped with Christmas Red Stickles! The snowflake is from A Cool Friend Die Set, spoon and "steam" are from the Cozy Cup Die Set.
Added a sentiment from Snowman Sentiments Stamp Set embossed with Red Glitz WOW Embossing Powder on a Sentiment strip from So Many Stitched Sentiment Stripes Die Set and popped it up with foam tape.


In this photo you can see the polka dots as well as the "steam" cut out of acetate!
Thank you for joining me today and the Hop!
