Baby it's cold outside

Hello Friends! Happy Hump Day! I hope you're having a great week thus far and staying warm wherever you may be! Can you believe it got down to the 40's in south Florida over the weekend? We actually had to turn our heat on, it was quite chilly. I know that's not saying much considering the serious winter storm that's tearing up the country, but it's a bit out of the norm for us down here.

So, I thought I'd pop in with a cute little gift that will make you feel warm on the inside...hot cocoa!


I found a recipe for Classic Cocoa on Pinterest and it's super easy to just layer all of the ingredients. Well, I will say that cocoa powder can get out of control...don't ask me how I know! After I layered everything, I sealed it tight and added that cute tag. The sentiments are from the Canned stamp set from PTI and don't you love that little sentiment on the spoon! I {heart} that spoon! The tag and the spoons are from PTI as well.
 
And, last but certainly not least are you peeping that dome on top of the hot cocoa mix? Yup, you guessed it, also from PTI and the set is called Petite Places: Main Street. The way the die set works, is there is a little extra room after the initial cut to fold the pieces in order for them to stand or to make a 3D image like the cafe. Oh my word, I just love this SO much! Those little trees are an add-on and as you can see I cut them a little too close to the edge of the dome, so they are what I'm calling swaying in the wind! LOL! So, under the dome I have the cocoa shop, a couple of scooters, the table and chairs and hopefully my girlfriend will think of me every time she sees it. I added some Flower Soft to make it look pretty and the clear dome is also from PTI.
 
I sure hope you like it Leslie!!! And I also hope you see this post after you receive it! :-)
 
I know this was a little longer than usual, but I sure hope you enjoyed it! Have a great day and thanks so much for stopping by!
