Warmest Wishes from Cocoa

Yesterday was my first post on the August Guest Design Diva team on the Sweet 'n Sassy digi blog. I took the opportunity to make another Christmas card.







Sweet 'n Sassy has a Cocoa image for almost every occasion. For my card, I used Cocoa's Mittens which was the very first digi I ever purchased from Sweet 'n Sassy back when I was just getting into digis. He was so cute I just couldn't resist.

Did you know that you could have the chance to be in the spot light on the Sweet 'n Sassy digi blog? Every Sunday, they choose a customer creation to spotlight. Check the Sweet 'n Sassy digi blog to see how you can enter for your chance to be chosen to be in the spotlight.

Thank you for looking.

Challenges for this card:

Supplies:

  • Images: Cocoa's Mittens by Sweet 'N Sassy, sentiment from Holiday Treats by PaperTrey
  • Papers & CS: Georgia Pacific white CS, Close To My Heart Jingle DP & Juniper CS
  • Inks: Close To My Heart Tulip ink
  • Tools: Copic & Prismacolor markers, My Favorite Things large scallop die, Sizzix label die, Big Shot
  • Embellishments: Close To My Heart white organza ribbon, Stampin' Up silver cord, Sakura Gelly Roll clear glitter pen, misc. dew drops
