Cup of Cheer

I am entering the following card in the following challenges.
Cricut Cardz Challenge - Cup of Cheer Challenge - This week challenge is to use a cup from any cartridge, with any color combination you like.

Cooking with Cricut - Emboss It - create a new project with some type of Embossing! Wet, Dry, or Faux.

I decided to use the cup from the Smiley Cards on my Gypsy because it is so cheerful. I used the D'vine Swirls for embossing.


Recipe:

I cut an 8.5" X 11" piece of vanilla card stock in half, then folded it in half to make the card. I then ran it through the Cuddle Bug using the D'vine Swirls folder.

I cut the coffee cup at 2.5". I decided to use a printed paper for the cup itself to give more personality. The paper is actually the background sheet that came in a set of stamps from My Pink Stamper. I never through anything away.

The "Enjoy!" stamp is, of course,  from My Pink Stamper. I used Chocolate Chip ink from Stampin' Up.

The ribbon was purchased at Hobby Lobby.

Hope you enjoy!

    How cute! I'm ashamed to say I still haven't used anything off of this cartridge download. I think you've inspired me, though!
