Not much stamping time today, but I did have the idea for this card rattling around in my head all day so I quickly sat down and gave it a try this evening. My friend Kimberly Crawford has been providing some beautiful inspiration lately with lace, buttons and thread so I decided to try out this style she's been doing so fabulously!
This is definitely a new style for me, and I'm not sure I like how this turned out but it's a start!
I know, I promised you the measurements today for the Hot Cocoa treat but I just never got around to working on it. Too much laundry, too many errands, too many phone calls, etc. and it all got in the way today. The good news is tomorrow I'll be back at work and I can just grab that little holder and a ruler to measure so you can get started creating your own Hot Cocoa Treats!
Happy stamping!
Stamps: Pocket Silhouettes (Stampin' Up!)

LOL, you just don't like doing simple, do you? I think it's great! The dp and lace are fabulous!

Tammy, this is so sweet----I was just looking at some lace last night & wondering where I could stick it on my card! LOL! Kim does have a great style and I think you have managed to blend the two, yours & hers, together very well!
Lovely!

Tammy that card is awesome. It just looks so everything. Sturdy but delicate and sort of Victorian but the colors are really neat along with that lace. Great job and beautiful card. Karen B.
