Hot Cocoa Anyone?

How about some warm cocoa on a cold winter night this holiday? The Ghirardelli cocoa and a handful of miniature marshmallows were inserted in a 3” x 5” zip seal bag.

Just Dreaming

Wanted to create a card for my new downline member Jessie, encouraging her to dream big! The possibilities with Stampin’ Up are endless. Don’t you want to join in the fun?

Ink: Rich Razzleberry, Close to Cocoa, Frost White Shimmer Paint
