Hi, crafty friends! Lea Lawson here with a fun, wintry card to share with you! I’ve featured the Cozy Cocoa stamp and die set, along with the Cozy Cocoa: Cider Additions to bring this charming little scene to life. For the background, I paired them with the Winter Mitts 3D embossing folder, which adds the perfect cozy texture.
To start, I embossed the Winter Mitts folder onto charcoal gray cardstock. Then, using just my fingertip and a light touch, I dabbed white pigment ink over the embossed snowflakes and the steam rising from the mug. I softly blended more white ink around the edges to create a frosty vignette, and finished it off with a splatter of white paint for that snowy effect.
While the background dried, I stamped and diecut the remaining elements from the Cozy Cocoa and Cider Additions sets. I chose a festive palette of cranberry red, juniper green, and spiced cider to give everything a warm seasonal feel – perfect for a winter card that’s equal parts sweet and spirited.
To assemble the card, I popped the background off a white card base using foam tape, then arranged the stamped elements with a mix of glue and foam tape for dimension. And of course, I couldn’t resist “frosting” a few pieces with a glitter mix for extra sparkle. It’s just not a Lea card without at least a smidgen of glitter!
Thanks so much for joining me today! I hope this card inspires you to cozy up with your favorite stamps and create something warm and wintry. Whether it’s cider, cocoa, or a little crafty sparkle – there’s always room for a bit of handmade joy this season.
