Double D Challenge: Warm & Cozy


Brrr, our mornings are starting out chilly these days, but the sun turns things warm and cozy later.  Love that about fall.  That's our Double D Challenge this time around -- Warm & Cozy.  The board is beautifully inspiring, and the prize for a random winner is adorable:


 

A cup of cocoa and some Christmas cookies can make me feel pretty darned warm and cozy.  I'd probably be wearing my favorite old cable knit sweater as I partake.  I think you can see how the board inspired me here.



Yes, it's a Cottage Cutz set again.  You know I love 'em and the sales are not to be resisted.  The embossing folder was from a Spellbinders warehouse sale during which I stocked up (ahem).  In this case I embossed on vanilla cardstock, then brushed with caramel ink, and followed up with a little sanding to enhance the pattern.



I love those cookies!  Actually, I love the whole die set.  There's a Santa for the mug, too, which I'll save for later.  Too much fun!  Most of the coloring is ink blending, but Copics for the smallest pieces.  The enamel dots are real this time.  Supplies are all listed in the recipe.

Get warm & cozy with us at Double D!  Share your make and maybe win that prize or be a creative favorite.  It's all in the spirit of fun.   Thanks for stopping by and I'll see you again shortly!
