CDS Sneak Peek - Cocoa - It's a wonderful life


Each month, Clear Dollar Stamps releases "singles" which are single stamps that are "dollar stamps". Now where else can you buy adorable stamps for so little? I can tell you, I have some on my stocking stuffer list (for myself of course). My first samples shows the cup of cocoa and a sentiment stamp "It's a Wonderful life". You're probably asking why I decided to pair these two together? Well.... I'm a sucker for a nice Peppermint Hot Chocolate on those cold fall and winter mornings. If any of my friends are reading this - I'd like a Venti, non fat, extra hot Peppermint Hot Chocolate, still with whip. Hehehehe.... can you tell I start some mornings at Starbucks????

My second samples shows the cup of cocoa that I have stamped three times. I thought it looked really neat this way, especially with the whip on top and the Crystal Effects on the mugs.
