Actually this mug image is so easy to cut out that I stamped it with Scarlet Jewel ink onto scraps of the Basic Grey background paper and paper pieced the images by cutting them out with fine tip scissors.
Before I adhered my mugs to my punched squares stamped with Borders and Corners Squares, I stamped the oval image from Warm Happiness with Aqua Mist ink. I love how this creates a little shadow for the mug. Aqua Mist Vintage Buttons with linen string finish off the mugs. A little Aqua Mist ribbon and a sentiment from an old SU! set finish off the cards.
These cards would be great to give along with a packet of hot cocoa, perfect for this time of year. I found a new hot cocoa recipe mix that I'm so anxious to try. I have searched and searched for the perfect homemade cocoa mix and hopefully this one will be the one. I'll be sure to share the recipe if it's a keeper.

You're cards are the absolute cutest!! I check your blog every day, but this is my first post. Hope to leave more. :)
A great hot chocolate recipe is from King Arthur Flour for hot chocolate blocks. Super yummy and chocolatey. It's a keeper. www.kingarthurflour.com go to recipes and then do a search for hot chocolate blocks. Love your ideas. Again, I have to ask, where did you find those really useful boxes? Love the idea.
Will I ever get tired of visiting this blog?! I love all the drink cards, sets, etc... I love the way you stamped on patterned paper here.

Those cards are so sweet! (I love that Basic Grey -- does anyone know what line it's from? Googling Basic Grey ladybug paper was not a smashing success. ;-) )
