On Saturday it was World Cardmaking day, and my Card making group had challenges going that we were able to work on through today. I am hoping to get through a couple more today, we will see.
First up we were to make a card using a cup, it could be coffee, cocoa anything we chose. I was in the mind set to do Hot Cocoa and make another Christmas card since I am not a coffee drinker and until it was time to stamp a sentiment did I realize oh this is suppose to be a cup of tea, ooopps. Hopefully the receiver still thinks of it as a cup of cocoa even with the tea bag string hanging from the cup, LOL!
My sister had given me a few craft goodies she didn't want anymore and these little candy canes were in the bag, thought it would work as a nice Christmas accent. I cut a doily from my stash in half to put under the cup.

Oh my goodness, Connie! That w/w card is gorgeous! So glad you rediscovered the snowflake die - it is elegant, festive and just plain AWESOME! Is that an oxymoron? can something be "plain" and "awesome" LOL Seriously, I love it. The dimension in that beverage is also very cute! Beautifully done! hugs, de
Both cards are just fabulous Connie! I had an old friend visit on Saturday so didn't get to partake in any of the special challenges for WCMD but I'm love seeing what everyone else has created! LOVE the white on white creation! Well done my friend! Thanks for inspiration!
I love the addition of the candy cane to your saucer - so cute and fun! The all white card is so elegant and frosty looking! Both are beautiful!
Lovely cards Connie. That cup is so pretty! Tea, cocoa or coffee... all the same. :) I like the swirls! The white on white is so elegant!
It doesn't matter what is brewing in that pretty cup as it is a lovely card. The white on white card is a beautiful card. It evokes a gentle elegance....just lovely.
Lovely cards and love the tea cup, so pretty is that snowflake die. xx
Both cards are very pretty. I love the image on the first card with the touch of blue. The second card looks so elegant. I always love the looks of a white card.
the first card is so comforting and "sweet", the candy cane is a really nice touch!!

Wonderful creations! Love that sweet cup of cocoa and that candy cane--fabulous!
Great cards!Love that cute teacup card!
Your teacup is darling! Maybe it's peppermint tea or someone put a tea bag in their cocoa. Hmmm... wondering how that might taste. I should try it! Who doesn't love a gorgeous white on white card? You've given it fabulous dimension with the pretty snowflake dies.
I love white on white cards, perfect for you lovely snowflakes. The candy cane makes a great embellishment on the saucer, pretty card.
