Cold Hands, Warm Hearts

Happy Wednesday, Roadies! It's smack in the middle of the winter holidays and here in New England the temps are low but our spirits are high.  My family loves to make a tradition of getting hot cocoa when we're out Christmas shopping or getting our tree (or really any time the kids can weasel their way into a cup...) and these photos of a recent trip to Starbucks gave me the perfect excuse to use my new Maya Road coffee cup die!


I love pink and teal for winter colors. Somehow this color combo, with red, is undeniably wintery, especially when you add lots of snowflakes as I did here.  I combined printed snowflakes with the more delicate die cut snowflakes in several clusters around my page. And the cute snowflake wood token added to the motif, too!


The coffee cup clip is TOO perfect, don't you think!? It perfectly balanced the coffee cup die on the other side of my photo. I used foam tape to give parts of it dimension and really pop it off the page.


I balanced the snowflake token with the mug token below my photo, added to one of many strips of ephemera, sequin trim, and crocheted trim.


I added a tag die cut and an arrow clip tied with twine at the bottom as well, to add some weight to the bottom of the page since my title was so top heavy.


Cheers to you on these chilly winter days... stay warm!
