This is for two challenges: Teapotters - encouragement card for a struggling mother who loves M&M's candy and for the Mix Media Challenge to be inspired by the color red. When I thought of M&Ms, I thought of red. My media: ink, chalk pen, pastel chalk, paper (it's Punch Art!).
This pin takes you to a blog with detailed instruction.
The first time with a punch art is always a learning curve. It turned out okay. The instructions did not describe how to do the hands, so I used one of the flowers from Boho Flowers punch (cut off some petals) and the tip of Word Window punch. The hands are raised up. I found the printed paper in my stash and it did say Stampin' Up!, but I don't recognize it. I thought the polka-dots reminded me of M&M's, so I used it even though the reds don't match perfectly. Fun card to make! Thanks for looking.

This is so happy and cute. The sweetest, dearest little pick me up card! I just got a very mini size box of m&m's that a store was handing out yesterday!...I have not succumbed yet to opening it though, lol.

Fab punch art! And the polka dot paper is so perfect. Seeing these cards at the teaparty this week has made me think so much of Charlene (LilLuvsStamping) who loved M&Ms and was a TeaParty stalwart.
