Inspired By #106 ... hot chocolate

 
Give a Michigan girl a photo with mittens?  You're gonna get mittens!!  lol  btw she'll take a cup of hot chocolate anytime!
 

Borrow a fantastic embossing folder from a friend?  I get this fabulous panel to put them on … almost looks like her gorgeous white wool coat, right?  or swirling, drifting piles of snow!  My fluff was created using Puffy embossing powder - and the mug?  From two label dies!

This girl from the Mitten State can't wait to see what you will be Inspired By for IB106!  Let's run by and see the deliciousness our DT has treated us to, shall we?

=]  Michele

EBE Pop-up Mittens, EBE Snow Days, and two Pinkfresh Studio label frame dies to create my cup for cocoa!  That panel was made with one of my friend Bobby's folders - maybe she'll share which one it is?  Please?

This is the way to ward off the chill of a winter's day! Love your mittens holding the frothy mug! Great embossed background too!

Deliciously crisp, Michele ... and wonderfully cosy! With a frothy hot chocolate and mittens like these, who wouldn't be toasty on a wild snowy day! Hugs, Anita :)

Had no idea you were a mitten girl...I'm impressed because when I put them on, I can't do anything...literally. You're right about the embossing folder...it does look like a wool coar. Makes a sweet card, too.

Darling mittens! I am not a cocoa fan (I do not like milk---especially warm milk) I think that ef is an older spellbinders white one called fabric weave.

Another perfect take on the inspiration photo, right down to the folds on the coat! And your mug is genius although I'm still trying to figure out how you did it!

It IS a fantastic dry embossed panel, Michele! It looks like sea of whipped cream to me. ;-P
The mug made of label dies and the puffy embossing powder make a perfect hot drink!
