Inspired by WaWa Coffee Mugs

The other day my husband stopped at WaWa and bought us coffee and I just loved these wintry holiday cups! As soon as we came home, I knew I had to make something out of them, so I rinsed them out and cut them apart and here's what I came up with

I made this card following the Freshly Made Sketch FMS363. I looked through my dies and found the Diamond die by Crafty Cutts that I haven't used in ages, so I cut a strip of diamonds from each colored cup, split them apart, and lined them up to make the vertical panel. The striped dsp is by Recollections, while the sentiment is a die-cut by KaiserCraft. The snowflake was made with Lawn Fawn stitched snowflakes adding a jeweled sticker to the center.

I'm also entering this card into the following challenges:

Merry Little Christmas Challenge MLCCB#4 -a/g Christmas

CHNC #412 - a/g Christmas option - something beginning with H

Little Red Wagon challenge #472 - remember when - use something from your stash (diamond dies)

I had enough left to make a couple matchbox treat holders, so I made one in each color. For the red one, I used a Lawn Fawn stitched snowflake die with some silver glittered cardstock, along with a SU! die from the pillow box framelit set, adding a big silver candi dot to the center, along with some silver brads. I die-cut the red with a Gina Marie Designs stitched square. For the green, I die-cut the front with a SU! pillow box framelit set, adding a white Lawn Fawn snowflake along with a mirror green snowflake done with the Pillow Box framelit set, along with a big green gemstone to the center. The brads look like tiny buttons and are from Recollections.

Adding these to the Happy Little Stampers November Christmas Challenge - anything goes with an option of being CAS

 Here's what the inside looks like. The sentiment was cut from the side of the coffee mug, and perfectly fit the Pillow Box framelit die, so these went together quickly.

That's going to do it for me today, but I'll never know where I'm going to find inspiration these days. Who knew a coffee cup would inspire me this much? LOL

Have a great weekend and thanks for stopping by!
