Santa Mug Card featuring Colorado Craft Company

Christmas in July cardmaking continues, with this card featuring the Santa Cheer Mug stamp set from Colorado Craft Company, designed by Kris Lauren. As a child, I had fond memories of drinking hot cocoa from my favorite Santa mug during the holidays. I now have several shaped holiday mugs in my kitchen cabinet and I bet you do too! Scroll down for a quick chit chat. I'll have my supply list at the end of this post, as well.

I'm using a fairly simple design for this card which is geared towards whipping out multiples of this card. You could also simply stamp the sentiment in the white space, rather than heat embossing which is what I did.

I didn't have the dies that go with this set but the die does cut an open space inside the mug handle, if you prefer the paper peeking through that space.

To make my candy cane look like it was dipped in the whipped cream, I simply placed a large section of masking tape over the whipped cream, then stamped my candy cane and peeled off the tape.

As you can see, I was heavy handed with the sprinkles! I used my Copic marker to add more sprinkles, dotting all over in various sizes. I also used a white gel pen for more embellishment.

I also gave my Santa some rosy cheeks and rosy pink nose.

It took 3 stamps from the set to create this all in one design that I then fussy cut and popped up on adhesive foam strips.

I used a patterned plaid paper from my beloved American Crafts Hot Cocoa paper pad. It's retired, but I'll have a similar pattern listed in my supply list. I'm making it a goal to use up some of what I already have! It gives me a reason to buy something new when I run out! 

I hope this card inspires you to get creative and stay ahead of your holiday cardmaking.
