Happy Birthday Card!

This card I made for a friend of mine that I've known since I was 16 years old, (over 35 years). We started working together at House Of Fabrics and been friends ever since. Ok, so that makes me feel really OLD!
I saw a card recently that used the mittens around the Hot Cocoa Mug and thought that it was so cute. I can't remember who's card it was. If it was you, I would love to add your link to my post. Edited to add: Thank you to Renee Pontious for letting me know it was Penny Smiley that posted the mug with the mittens. You can view her card HERE!

Here is a side view and a close up of the mug and mittens. I added some of the White Sweater Trim to the tops of the mittens. Happy Birthday Cindy!

    Cindee...I've been a followers of your blog and have just lately started to get caught up after traveling so much. You asked the question about the mittens around the mug. My dear friend Penny Smiley at www.stampsnsmiles.blogspot.com originally showcased these mittens around the mug on Oct 8th. She is another extremely talented Stamper. Love how you did your card.
