Hello everyone!! Fall official starts tomorrow, can you believe that? I can’t. Where in the world did the summer go. I didn’t really get to do much. No vacation. That is so shameful.
For those of you who know me well, knows I DO NOT like the cold. I hate it with a passion. The only thing I like about this time of year is a mug full of soup or a tea!! Yes, I love drinking tea or eating soup out of large mugs. It makes me feel cozy!!
So today I’m here with the Muse Challenge #85. The Muse this week is Marion Vagg! I really like her card. The flowers are so nice and simple.
Take a look at Marion’s card:
I wish I had such luck with flowers. I don’t even own a flower die cut, so I needed to come up with something else.
I’m also entering my card into the NBUS Challenge. The stamp set I used is new and I just received it in the mail.
Take a look at my card:
I love this little tea cup of “warmness”! Can you imagine sitting on your sofa with a cover, good book and this cup of tea!! Yes, I’m ready for the fall now!! My new mug from the 2014 mug swap came just in time for the chilly weather.
My color inspiration came from this mug which I love:
I didn’t have a Copic marker close to this color so I choose the next best color. I think it turned out just great!
So what do you think? Please let me know.
Before I go I wanted to Thank You everyone over at the Muse for voting for my card last week. I received Honorable Mention for this card.
Supplies used:
Thank you so much for stopping by!!

Hey DF! Thank you!!
Lovely card. We are heading in to spring here in Melbourne, Australia. Love the warmer days myself.
Soup and a cuppa tea – I drink tea even in summer. Nothing better.
Thanks for sharing your card.
Hello From My Craftroom!!! Thank you so much for your kind comment. Wow, Australia one of the places that I have to visit before I get to old. I drink tea in the summer too!!! I drink tea all year round. My daughter too. She loves tea!!
Your card is fab – lovely stamping and colouring 🙂 I have a very similar Le Creuset mug as well!
Hey Sam!! Thank you so much for your wonderful comment. I am trying to get better at Copic coloring. I’m glad you like it. I want one of those Le Creuset mugs.
You’re not alone, I hate the cold too. But to make you feel better, I haven’t had a holiday abroad since 2010 *sobs* The UK can be very dull in the winter so hurry up Spring is all I can say. Love your card, can’t beat a nice cuppa! 🙂
Hey Anita! Thank you so much for your kind comment. Wow, 2010 is a long time. You need to come to the NY for a visit. I love big mugs!!
You did do a beautiful job ombre coloring that giant mug of warm and cozy, Kymona! Great addition of the sequins, too! Thank you so much for playing in my second NBUS Challenge!

It’s cold here today, so that cup of tea is looking very, very good indeed! Love the ‘steam’ too! So glad you joined us at Muse this week!
Hey Ardyth!! Thank you for your kind comment. I’m so glad I was able to make it this week.
LOVE this beautiful card, Kymona! Your coloring is fabulous and such a wonderful take on Marion’s card! I think I’ll have to go and pour myself a hot cup of tea right now 🙂
Hey Barb!! Thank you so much for your kind comment. LOL, after I created the card I wanted a cup of tea too.
This card is the epitome of warm and cozy!! Makes me wish it was cold enough to have a cup of cocoa!! Mint flavored of course!! So very well done and I am so super thrilled for you for getting the Honorable Mention – You are just so amazing!! You are so deserving!!
