So Sweet

This card is for the "So Sweet" challenge at House Mouse this week.  The Challenge can be found here
This week the challenge is  to make a card with something "Sweet" on it.  I chose to use Hot Cocoa for my sweet, It's something I indulge in quite often...but I'm not supposed to, so please don't tell my Doctor...smile.
My House Mouse image was colored with copics, again by my husband.  He used E25,C3, W1, C5, G99, W00, E07, E19, E0000, RV00, T2.

I used a Cheery Lynn die for my background frame (Lattice 2 die)  I colored in the squares with copics, popped my image up with pop dots, and added a Jolee spoon in the corner (and the spoon is silver not black.  Some day I will learn how to adjust the colors.  I hope so anyway...smile.

Hope everyone is having a good day...Blessings to you, Jill

PS. In case you missed it, Yesterday, I had a wonderful surprise when I logged onto the House Mouse Web site.  I won the last Challenge.  I was stunned!  (ask my husband, how excited I was...LOL) Along with my prize, I have the opportunity to be a Guest Designer.  WOW!  What an Honor!  I'm a bit nervous.  I have trouble thinking outside the box.

And right now, it's still more of a challenge these days to make cards, because I still don't have my
craft room back.  I'm still digging through packed up boxes for my supplies.
