Snowflakes & Coffee

The first Caffeinated Christmas Challenge of 2024 is to combine Snowflakes & Coffee.

I took the inspiration for my card from the adorable Winter Wishes cookies at the If You Give a Crafter a Cookie Challenge.

I used the colors from the current Color Hues Challenge and stamped my Echo Park But First Coffee To Go Cup in Navy ink.  Just like the cookie, I decorated my coffee cup with a single snowflake brad and a tiny light blue gem in the center.

I used a layout from the Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers Challenge (BYSHC) and a Tim Holtz label sentiment.

I'm also joining Paper Minutes where the challenge is Something New (the Echo Park stamps were in my Never Before Used Schtuff stash, so I'm also linking-up at NBUS).

  1. That sketch and the Color Hues combo produced a great card! I love the snowflake brad and I’m always a fan of polka-dots! (Those inspirational cookies certainly look delicious.) Thanks for sharing with us at Color Hues!
