Hot Chocolate Mug Card

Hello everyone! Here is a project that I made for when little one's come to my house during the Holidays! It might only be hot chocolate and a chocolate stir stick, but when it's packaged like this they seem to think it's so much more! LOL!
I made one of these last year if you would like to see that post and where to go for the template, click HERE. I actually made mine using my Gypsy, the mug from Gypsy Wanderings, and some images from George and Basic Shapes.
Hello Kitty was cut from Hello Kitty Greetings at 3.5 inches. The "Merry Christmas" pull tab I made by welding 2 together and folding in half, also cut from HKG. I embossed the front of the card with the Cuttlebug Snowflakes folder and added a ribbon. To finish I added the packet of hot chocolate and a chocolate stir stick.
I am going to enter this into the following challenges
1. My Creative Time Throwback Thursday- Create a project that is KID themed
2. Scrappy Moms Terrific Tuesday- 3D project
3. Getting Cricky Simple Sunday Challenge- Tea time, create a project with a hot beverage theme.

Hot Chocolate Mug

Happy Friday everyone! Boy it sure feels like winter here today! It is only 26 degrees out and I am FREEZING! :) I saw this cute hot chocolate mug on Stampin' & Scrappin' with Stasia and knew I wanted to make one. She has the template on her site if you would like it. I actually created this one using my Gypsy. I used the mug from Gypsy Wanderings and some images from George to create mine. I embossed the front side of the mug with a snowflake embossing folder and then ran white ink over the embossed parts. I cut the snow from PDDU at 1 inch and trimmed it to fit around the edges of the mug. The tree and snowman were cut from Gypsy Wanderings at 3 inches and 2.5 inches. I used my hide contour feature and hid the design on the snowman. I chalked the snow and snowman to give it a little dimention and outlined the snowmans scarf. I definatley need a mug of hot chocolate today! Have a Happy Halloween everyone! I am hoping to do more project this weekend.....but I am not counting on it. My son just had knee surgery yesterday and needs my help most of the time. This morning was the worst for me. He is in so much pain that it just breaks my heart! Oh, to be a MOM! Wish me luck! Hugs!
I am going to enter this in Emmas Throwback Thursday challenge.
