Happy Inspirational Sunday to you!
Today I have a card featuring the A La Mode - Hot Cocoa. I love these spindly legs. I so wish I had them, mine are more like that mug she is carrying, lol. I love the sketch this week over at MFT's Sketch Challenge, it is just perfect for her. I used MME - Winter Wonderland 6X6 papers. I had seen one of the MFT's designers use striped paper for the leggings on a card months ago and remembered that I loved it, so I wanted to try it out. Dontcha hate it when you can't remember who it was? But anyway, I love the leggings too, lol. I used a Martha Stewart Punch to make the cocoa cup and the doily behind it. And my Fishtail Flag Stax to make the two panels behind the main image. I also heat set liquid applique for the cocoa on the little punched mug.
No you are not seeing things, I did poke an extra hole in the main panel, lol. But the brads were not even and so I just left it there, lol. I have found sometimes the cover up looks worse than the actual mistake, so in this case, it's just an extra hole, lol. I did not want to start over. What do you do when you make a mistake like this?
Please head on over to the Sensational Sunday post and see what my fellow DT members have made. If you leave a comment, you could win a prize!!!

You could also win prizes for playing!!! AWESOME!!!
Whatever you do on your Sunday, take a moment or two to just take it all in. Enjoy a moment or two. You will not have this day back again. I'm trying to remind myself to do this every day. At work, shopping for the holidays, making cards for a D.T., etc. Just trying to stop and enjoy the journey. And letting go of little mistakes like extra poked holes. lol.
Thanks for Looking and for your kind Comments.
