Hot chocolate time


THIRD AND FINAL POST FOR TODAY
It's been so cold today that it's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas. I'm sitting here drinking hot chocolate from my Christmas mug, just like the girl in this Whiff of Joy image. Although it's a birthday card I used the BG Eskimo Kisses papers as these ones don't really look like Christmas papers. I added a strip of pink glitter down both sides by using double sided tape, which means perfect straight lines of glitter.

The sketch is from Moving along with times. I rotated the strips 90 degrees and moved the image to the right.

Other challenges are
Whiff of Joy Sparkle
Basic grey Cream, pink and blue (plus any other colours)
Die Cut Dreams Glitter me silly
