Hello, Stampers!
It’s time for a new challenge over on the Dare 2B Artzy blog, and it definitely describes the current situation here in Ohio!

Our forecast shows a high of 12 degrees this afternoon!  My card for today shows how I am trying to stay warm!

I began by stamping these cute mugs from the Cup of Cheer stamp set.
They were colored with the following Copic markers: (YG11, G14, G17), (BG01, B04, B05), ( C00, C1), and (R14, R37, R59).  I then cut the images out with the coordinating dies.
Accents were added with Glossy Accents, a white gel pen, and Wink of Stella.  I tried to capture some of the shimmer, but I could really use suggestions on getting that shimmer to show in my photos.  Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated!

After die cutting the card base with the Our Daily Bread Designs Center Step Card Die, I cut the layers from Dare 2B Artzy’s Winter Plaid paper.  I have a bit of a sweet tooth so I added the peppermint stick from the Cup of Cheer set to my hot chocolate, too!

If you live in a cold weather climate, how are you staying warm today?  I hope it’s by crafting up some great projects and entering them in the Dare 2B Artzy Winter Wonderland Challenge!  You might be the lucky winner of a D2BA stamp set and ink pad of your choice!

Happy crafting, and stay warm!
