🍂 Happiness Is a Hot Mug on a Chilly Day

There’s just something magical about autumn mornings — the air a little crisp, the coffee a little warmer, and creative time calling your name. For this year’s Fall | Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop, I made a tall, tag-style bookmark featuring one of my favorite images to color this season. Fall Weather Meadow from the November Crafty Crew Kit is wrapped in her soft sweater, comfy socks, and holding that perfect pumpkin-orange mug of happiness.

I colored her with my Copics in cozy aqua and pumpkin tones to match the patterned papers behind her — think falling leaves, latte swirls, and pumpkins galore! The sentiment “Happiness is a hot mug on a chilly day” just says it all, doesn’t it? 🍁

A touch of gingham ribbon and a sprinkle of gems finished it off for that little sparkle of joy. It’s the kind of project that makes me want to grab my blanket, my book, and, of course, another cup of coffee.

If you’d like to see how this bookmark came together, you can watch the process video — I share each step of the layering so you can craft along.
