I have to start the day with my homemade mocha-coffee with a package of Swiss Miss cocoa stirred into it. I didn't have a die for the coffee mug so I improvised with the round punch and cut off the bottom and top to make the mug shape. Then the handle is a smaller round punch, offset and then decorated with the bling. Clever, if I do say so myself. The "steam" heart is die cut and fussy cut to narrow width, then glued over the red paper which had the hearts punched in the center of the page. (Nifty those magnetic "all over the page" punches) The sentiment tag is made by sticking a strip of brown paper into the center of the EK flower medallion punch so the petals make the fancy edge. Hand scored border around the deep red CD with multiple lines on the bottom that the mug sits on.
This card accompanies the Double Dessert Triple Chocolate Decadence card for the Double Dessert Color Challenge. I hope you like my plain and fancy cards for this challenge.

Oh I love how you created your own cup and the added bling on the handle is a great touch. My eyes are drawn to the beautiful heart steaming out of the cup. Just so darling.
