I have had this mug template for quite awhile and I am not sure who I received it from originally but the owner's name is on the template, Sherry Graves (I have looked but can't find any info on her). If you are Sherry or you know her site, let me know and I will post a link.
UPDATE ON THE MUG TEMPLATE: Through a couple of viewers (thanks Nancy and Becky), I found Sherry and found out that her template must be purchased (it's only a few dollars, very little for a fabulous template!) I have since purchased the template for myself but have removed the downloadable template from my site as per her 'Terms of use'. You can purchase the individual template on her site http://papershapez.com/?page_id=131&category=51 or you can pay a small annual fee and have access to download all the wonderful templates on her site here: http://stamp-shack.com/. Check them out, she has some pretty awesome templates! Sorry Sherry and everyone for all the confusion...when I saw for personal use on the template, I thought it meant you can share it with others for their personal use as long as you didn't sell it...Duhhh :-) But a good thing happened out of it as I found a great place for unique templates!
I used Tempting Turquoise to make my mug and I wheeled on the 'Snow' wheel from Stampin' Up and added dazzling diamonds with a glue pen.
I wrapped 10 mini marshmallows in Saran wrap and added them to a cellophane bag, along with a package of hot chocolate, 3 Hershey kisses and a candy cane and then tied it with a piece of Tempting Turquoise ribbon.
I printed the Snowman Soup poem on my computer and adhered to a scrap piece of Turquoise left over after cutting out the mug. I stamped the snowman from Stampin' Up stamp set, Just Celebrate and colored areas with a blender pen and ink from the stamp pad. You can download the word document as well...there are 3 different Snowman Soup poems on it and the ingredients for it as well. Thanks for stopping by! Karen

Thank you so much for posting this mug template and poem ideas! It came at the perfect time! I teach classes to a Mom's Group and was looking fora low cost way for all of them to be able to make a hot chocolate mix with a mug! This is perfect! They love to scrapbook too - so it's the best of both world's! A great inexpensive gift that allows individuality of the giver. I can't wait to do this with them in the morning, and I can't wait to try it with my kids too! Thanks again!
