Espresso my thanks!


A quick post tonight.......I couldn't resist posting another "coffee" themed card for the Coffee Lover's Blog Hop!  Check out Cutscropscreativity for all the details as well as all the PRIZES up for grabs!


This card uses some fabulous pattern paper from Simple Stories (the story of US) along with the Be a Barista stamps from Reverse Confetti.  I stamped my coffee mug onto pattern paper and paper pieced a gold strip onto the mug and cut out.  I stamped one of the coffee images in Gold Delicata ink to finish it off.  

9.30.14 

Using the Tag Me Dies, I diecut 2 tags from coordinating paper from this same collection.  After stamping my sentiment and adhering my coffee mug, my tags were tied up with Metallic Gold twine from the Twinery.  This was all mounted onto a gold striped panel that has vellum stitched in place to soften the pattern.  I couldn't help myself.....I had to add in some 4mm Gold sequins from Pretty Pink Posh too!  :)

9.30.14#2




I am playing along with a new to me challenge:  Tag You're It! Challenge.  I found Gayatri's layout and bold black tag to be my inspiration.

Thanks for sharing a part of your evening with me!  I must get some zzzzz's now!  :)
