Two Hot Chocolate Themed cards

For the Top Ten Blog Hop (and giveaway) please scroll down or click HERE.

I'm back with a couple of winter themed cards and playing along with the MFT sketch challenge for this week.  I created 2 very similar cards.  Such a fun sketch.



First up to create the background I used my Silhouette.  I have used it that much lately and it was feeling neglected. ;)


I then stamped and paper pieced the cute little snowman from the Cool Friend stamp set and used the Warm Heart Paper.  The mug is the Hot Cocoa die from MFT and the sentiment is from the Hug in a Mug set.  I added a vellum snowflake using the Let it Snow dies from MFT.  As a final touch I added some marshmallows from the Toasted Marshmallow die set from MFTThe images are mounted on foam squares for dimension. 


Next up, I used the Squared Off Panel from Reverse Confetti as the background this time.  

Many of the same items have been used on this card as well - the Hot Cocoa, Toasted Marshmallow and Let it Snow dies from MFT.  I then added a sentiment (which I cut apart) from the hotchocolate2stamp set from The Stamps of Life.  I die cut the word hug and added it.  The paper on this card is from Echo Park Perfect Winter.

Now here is the sketch that I used:
