Our December challenge is Cup of Kindness
Everywhere you look this time of year there's a flurry of color. Shiny ornaments, twinkling Christmas lights, window displays decked out in the merriest of brights. And not to mention all the sweet little wassail, hot cocoa, tea and coffee cups all around. So this month we're challenging you to share a cup of kindness with us. Get inspired by the graphic or blaze your own color trail, just show us some colorful creations!
I've used a combination of several Verve sets to create my card. I started with this bold black tag from Holiday Treats and stamped a sentiment from Coffee. My little stack of cups (from One Cup) were stamped, diecut, and colored with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. Everything was adhered to a watercolored background of Distress Inks.....Picked Raspberry, Twisted Citron, and Salty Ocean. And finally, I added a black glittered "Coffee" diecut sentiment! (Iridescent sequins from Pretty Pink Posh)
