Merry Monday ~ Favorite Winter Drink

I don't drink coffee...I know, amazing, huh?
However do I love hot chocolate and yummm my favorite...Starbucks
peppermint hot chocolate!
So when Deanne came up with this picture for our Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge and said for us to make a card using our favorite drink as inspiration, I had to make mine a hot chocolate with the peppermint candy canes!



Go check out what the team has made to inspire you!
We look forward to seeing what you make!
Doesn't it feel good to get a jump start on the Christmas cards?

I love this and will go make some hot choclate right now. It is -17 here this morning and your card warmed me right up. The window frame is so cute and perfect to display the images.

Fabulous layout Colleen, I love the cocoa with the marshmallows.

Ah... a kindred spirit in the non-drinking of coffee. I feel that cocoa requires peppermint sticks otherwise what is the point. Love your card and that you added marshmallows!
