Happy December!

Good morning! I can't quite believe it is already December! 17 more days at work until we break up for the Christmas holidays. 24 more days to get ready for Christmas! Are you ready?! I know I'm not yet!

Anyway on to today's card. I used the fabulous Thanks A Latte stamp set from Lawn Fawn to make a wintery feel, yet warm and yummy card! I think this set is such a cute one, despite the fact that I don't drink hot drinks at all really, just the occasional hot chocolate if I'm really cold!

I love this combo of red, aqua and white for Christmas cards and now I have bought some new patterned papers in this combo, I will be making lots more! And I finally found my Big Shot platform so I can emboss cards again with my embossing folders - I have the magnetic plate for my dies so never use the original platform and after a hunt the other weekend, I found it tucked behind my set of drawers which hold random crafting stuff!

This card is for
