Monochromatic Christmas

This card is my entry for Whiff of Joy Challenge 69 - Coffee and Cream for colors; Sketch Saturday Challenge 93 and Susie and Vikki's Christmas Card Challenge 7 - Hot Chocolate.  We will imagine that Herb is carrying hot chocolate in his teacup.  I used my Versamarker and colored in the designer paper and then put white embossing powder on it so that it would look more wintery as opposed to fall.

Stamps:  Herb with Teacup - Whiff of Joy
Paper:  Close to Cocoa, Whisper White and unknown patterned paper
Ink:  Creamy Caramel, Close to Cocoa and Tsukineko Graphite Black
Accessories:  sponge, circle cutter, white EP, Versamarker, ribbon, rhinestones and copics

Copics:
Towel E21, E29
Hat, Scarf and Mittens E33, E3, E37, E53
Cup E35, E47
Body and Head E53, E35

I just finished this sketch, fun fun fun, wow, did I say I really like this, I thought for sure you'd use that elisabeth bell with the hot chocolate, I still have mine from our stamp night, haven't coloured her yet though, wow I love this!!!!
