Not sure I met the challenge exactly, but I was bound and determined to use my Mix & Mat: Pinked Edge dies, and did wind the twine through the leaf die cut...just a little hard to see!
I started with a white leaf embossed panel (Thanks Bonnie!!) and then mounted the Mix & Mat: Pinked Edge die cut in Honey Nut cs on top with dimensionals underneath to prop it up a bit. I wound my twine underneath and came up through the top where the Tiny Tag is. The leaf on the tag is from Autumn Scarecrow. I added a cup of hot cocoa (sorry, NOT a coffee lover!) from Sunny Studio (Mug Hugs) that was blended with Blueberry Sky Ink and then embossed another leaf in copper from the Autumn Scarecrow set. A rust colored ribbon was tied around the handle of the mug to incorporate some ribbon.

I am also entering this card into the Inspired By All The Little Things #70 challenge, which is what inspired my colors, the leaves, and the mug on this card. You can play along HERE.
