Sometimes, admittedly not often this time of year, I know exactly the what, where, when, and how of an inspiration challenge - that was the case this morning when my friend LeAnne introduced me to The Card Concept challenge #167.
Here is my Clean and Simple creation using Elizabeth Crafts perfect Marshmallow Snowmen...
I've checked and it seems the stamps are no longer available - sorry.
I was inspired by the colors, the berries and greenery, darling cups, and of course the marshmallows in the photo.
While looking for a suitably interesting place to pose this hot tub cup o' cocoa, I came upon some bits of already stamped greenery and berries from PTI's Spruce and Sprigs. My newest panel die from Pinkfresh Studio - Stitched Scallop Rectangles was cut from Neenah white 110# cardstock. I embossed the middle section the die cuts to provide a little lift and added that sweet signage.
Oh, it was so fun to be inspired again! Thanks, TCC!

Oh my goodness, this little marshmallow guy in the chocolate hot tub is just too much! Love the embossed background framed by those wonderful stitched scalloped dies.
Fun indeed, Michele. That's what your card evokes with that little marshmallow man.
Marshmallow Man look mighty happy bobbing around in the cocoa! I love hot chocolate and marshmallows and usually manage a few cups a week in the winter but my servings do not look this adorable!
