For my card today I am using a Penny Black stamp called Cozy Cuppa. This is such a pretty stamp, which I have used before. To colour this time I loved the look on the packaging, looks great so why not ise it I thought!

To begin my card I am stamping on a piece of Neenah cardstock cut to 5.25 x 4.0" with Memento Ink in Tuxedo Black. From the original stamp I blocked off the winter parts of the image, which are snowflakes and a large snowflake on her hat.

I replaced the large snowflake that was part of the hat with 7 tiny light blue pearls. I also added a slightly larger pearl to the cap on the bird.

To colour I used copic markers. For the jacket BG49, BG34, BG32; B23, B24, and B29. The hat and gloves are BG11 with the trim using B29; Coffee cup is B24, coffee is E17 and steam is C3 and C1; her face is E01, E04; Bird is B24 and BG34 and the table surface is C1 with several layers.

I attached my Neenah carstock piece to Recollections cardstock in a medium matting, then attaached to the darker blue card base.

For matting I added a light blue piece of cardstock by Recollections, the applied the pieces to the darker blue cardbase.

For some reason it bother me that the image did not have a left arm protruding from the jacket to the glove, so I drew it in and coloured it with the E01 copic marker.

Finishing up I added Pinkfresh Ombre Blue and Silver gems to the card front, keeping he rest of the card clean and simple.
