Sunday Sip…Marshmallows to my Hot Chocolate

Hello there Coffee, tea, cocoa loving friends!  It’s Kerry here and I’m back with another fun Sunday Sip!  Today, I’ve created a pretty little digi card featuring some of the newest images from Super Sponsor Graciellie Designs.  I’m loving one of her newest paper collections called Sweet Love and her new cocoa loving set called Coffee or Cocoa.  I decided to spiff up the cups of cocoa on this chilly blast of winter we’re having.  It’s so nice to come in out of the cold and come into the kitchen to whip up a hot cup of warm and toasty hot cocoa.

This card was created totally in digital format by laying out the background (and tweaking the color to a light lavender instead of pink) then overlaying the cococa cups along the edge.  I then printed this image on printer paper…yes, printer paper and colored the cocoa with some Copic markers.  After coloring, I mounted this panel onto white cardstock, folded the striped background edge over and machine stitched the edge together.  After that, I mounted this panel onto a Kraft card base.

To finish off my card, I attached some silver pearls and some yummy dark brown cocoa satin ribbon.  

I suppose you could say I might* have made this card just so I could set up this dee-lish vignette for the photo op.  Hee hee…Well, maybe so, but after the shots, I was left with a mighty tasty treat!  😉

Love this card design?  Why not join the fun a play along with our sketch challenge this week?  We’d love to see your fab creations!  Just post your project in our inlinkz gallery below!  🙂

      Yeah. Crazy ‘eh? I thought I had cardstock in my printer but when it came out I kind-of cried! I wasn’t going to let all that colored ink go to waste so I said What the heck,I’ll give this a try on my card. It worked! ❤️

    Oh Kerry, I love this gorgeous card with Gracie’s new digis! I’ve used printer paper before, but not usually for things I plan to color. Can’t believe how perfect it came out — love your card!
