Heart2Heart Challenge - Hot Cocoa

This week's challenge at Heart2Heart Challenges is to create a "Hot Cocoa" themed project to warm us up in the chilly winter!  You can interpret the challenge any way you want - create a hot chocolate themed project OR to use the CTMH colors Cocoa or Chocolate.  I did a bit of both!

I've had the stamp set "Cup of Cheer" for a while now and hadn't had an opportunity to ink it up.  This challenge gave me just the right project for it - a tri fold card cut from our Artiste Cricut cartridge using Cocoa cardstock.  I was thinking about Fiesta Ware because of the flower on the pot so I made my card using some fun and funky colors - not my usual softer pairing with Cocoa but I like the vibrant pop.

Here is the card flat as you would pull it out from the envelope:

And here is what it looks like when its standing and the tri-fold part opens up a bit.  I like how the pot looks like its just finished pouring into the cup!

I think this will be a fun card to send to my parents this winter to give them a long-distance hug.
