Sweet Sunday Cocoa

***Please scroll down for my MFT teaser post***

It's time for this week's Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge, SSS146.

We have yet another fabulous sketch (I think I say that every week, but I mean it!) which I decided to flip, for no particular reason. My image would have worked just as well  using the sketch as is, but I'm a rebel. LOL!

This image is another MFT teaser for à la mode day, and will be available on December 6th at 10pm. The set is called à la mode Hot Cocoa Cutie. She's wearing the cutest UGG style boots too, but I had to crop them off to work with the sketch.

She's coloured with copics and I paper pieced the mug with one of the patterns from the Jillibean Soup Christmas Eve Chowder mini pad. I used the larger size of the open scallop doily duo die-namics to cut out the chocolate layer under the image panel, and the little open scallop strip die-namic was perfect for the straight scallop detail. I used the new fringed perennial die-namic to create the flower from strawberry ice cream felt.

I hope you'll play along with this week's sketch and link your creation on Karen's blog. Now it's time to hop around and see what the rest of the Sweet Sunday Sketchers created.


Here are the die-namics I used:

Thanks for stopping by!
