I had free time to create a fun card this morning. I think it was my first time to truly relax since the Christmas holidays. :) The snowman was done with my Silhouette Cameo 3 (Snowman With Mug Paper Piecing by Jennifer Wambach). The perfect cup stamp and sentiment are by Newton's Nook (Cup of Cocoa). I used red and white striped leftover Christmas tissue for the pleated bottom strip. The black cardstock background was embossed with a snowflake pattern embossing folder (Sizzix). For a finishing touch, I added sequin spangles and white Nuvo drops. It was nice to enjoy crafty time without being stressed about "things to do." :) Hope you get some stress free creative time too. :) My cocoa loving snowman is joining these awesome challenges:

This is adorable and perfect for our challenge using that strip of striped tissue paper! Love that embossed background and the additional snowflakes. This is making me want a cup of hot cocoa with a candy cane in it, too. Thanks for playing along with us at JUGS!
