Hello and welcome! I'm hosting our Photo/Mood Board challenge at Just Us Girls this week. I found this pretty photo on Pinterest. I tell ya, that cup of hot chocolate is calling my name! No marshmallows for me though. But I do like to spray on the Reddi-Whip and stir it in! See that pretty branch of blooms? We have two of those flowering cherry trees in our backyard. I just love the delicate pink blooms!
I think you can see where I was going here with the cup and the blooms. My sweet mug of hot chocolate is by Poppystamps ~ Nordic Cozy Cocoa. It was cut from patterned paper in my stash. The whipped cream was made with a glittered cardstock. My polka dot mug is a nod the the bokeh you see in the window!
Speaking of windows, I used a retired Gothic window by Poppystamps. I cut the window from woodgrain paper to pick up the table in the photo and backed it with vellum. It's decorated with retired blooms. I layered them up to resemble the cherry blossoms. This embossed background was a panel my sweet friend Greta sent me. I thought it grounded my scene perfectly!
I hope to find your card in our gallery this week. Just pick from the photo what inspire you and get crafty!

Yummmy inspiration photo you’ve found. And a pretty cute card to inspire, too. Fabulous texture and dimensions.
Wow! Your card is beautiful, Lisa! From the EF, the window frame, the blossoms and that sweet mug with a nice dollop of whip you nailed the Mood Board! And now I'm ready to go fix a mug of cocoa!
That photo makes we want a cup of yummy hot chocolate - maybe next week when it will be in the 30's again here in Florida. I love your inspiration photo and your lovely card with the cute cup and pretty pink blooms. That embossed background is perfect with your lovely scene.
When I looked at that mug in the inspiration photo I thought it's too pretty to drink! Then I see your pretty pink mug and I think the same thing, sigh. Love the flowers you adorned your window scene with, and the embossing in the background. I love a window die. So pretty all over, Lisa!
Beautiful card inspired by the lovely photo, Lisa!! LOVE all the pink ... and your gorgeous nordic-inspired mug ... that whipped cream topper looks so yummy! The window looks amazing in the background! xx
What a beautiful photo, Lisa! You have captured the essence of it in your card from the lovely pink to the woodgrain and bokeh! I hope I can squeeze some time this weekend to play with pink!
This card is so pink and dreamy, Lisa. I absolutely love it ❤️
Awesome job choosing that inspiration photo, and the way you interpreted it in your project is equally wonderful! I love every detail from the gorgeous embossed background to the polka dots on your cup. Fabulous make!
A sweet and yummy design, Lisa! I would love to have a cup of that hot chocolate.

Oh my goodness Lisa, you nailed the inspiration and I love your pretty coffee mug with the sparkle and the fabulous window!!
Both your inspiration photo and your card are truly inspiring! I love the soft, dreamy pinks in both.
What a yummy and beautiful pink inspiration photo, Lisa! I probably wouldn't have thought to use the window die in this way--love it! Beautiful pink flowers and so happy you could use the embossed panel!
Everything about your mood board is so delightfully delicious Lisa. Your card is amazing in every way with the background dies and pretty flowers not to mention that cup of hot chocolate with cream on top. I would have to have pink marshmallows on mine with real cream. You gave us the most delightful mood board to play with. Thanks.
I love everything you pulled out of the mood board! The mug is so sweet and I love it in the window surrounded by pretty pink blooms!
Such an inviting and inspiring board, You captured the dreamy brightness with your sweet card, Lisa! I love the blooms and the pretty window you chose.
Your scattering of cherry blossoms brought attention to the darling mug and whipped topping, Lisa.
