Sassy Cheryl's Challenge --- Ribbon or Tulle

Another quick post tonight.  I spent the afternoon coloring all sorts of images and really enjoyed my newly discovered Sassy Cheryl images.  She's getting ready to post another challenge tomorrow so I made this simple card to get it in under the wire tonight.  I might even be too late for the challenge, but I have another card made for Christmas anyway. 

This might be one crazy snowman, but he is holding a lovely mug of something warm and creamy.  It could be hot cocoa, or a delicious latte.  In any case, he makes me smile and it will be fun to send those smiles to someone special.  The rick rack ribbon is a treasured find from the General Store in the Amanas, Iowa.  It was actually used as decoration on a Christmas tree!  Well, as any scrapper/paper crafter knows, almost anything can find its way onto our palettes!

Have a great night!  Hmmmm, I'm thinking a nice hot chocolate with a drop or two of Amaretto would make a perfect nightcap.  ZZzzzzzzzz...........
