#COFFEE

Hi there, everyone!  I'd like to share this sweet cup of coffee with you all.  I used a piece of woodgrain patterned paper (Crate Paper Happy Camper) for my base, and I machine stitched a cool pattern around the edges.  I used a second piece of floral patterned paper (Echo Park) in the center of my card; and I framed that piece of paper with a Taylored Expressions Scalloped Frame die cut from vellum.

I stamped my coffee mug, whipped cream, and marshmallows and "frosted" them with ultra-fine glitter, and I stamped the sentiment (#COFFEE) using Tackle Life One Cup At A Time from Paper Sweeties.  I love going through my stamp stash and finding sets that I haven't used in quite a while. 

I also used some Paper Sweeties Seam Binding that I stained with Tim Holtz Oxide Ink to create my bow, and I topped that with some Mulberry Flowers and I tucked in a few Double Head Stamens.  It's a fairly simple card, but these lovely products make it look super sweet.

To decorate my coordinating envelope for this card, I again used the Paper Sweeties stamp set called Tackle Life One Cup At A Time and I stamped the same sentiment (#COFFEE) as well as the cute little coffee mug.  Making a matching envelope is fun, cute, and gives you the complete set.  Who wouldn't LOVE getting a cute envelope in the mail?

I'm having fun this week playing along in a few challenges which is a nice treat for me.  I don't often get the time to play along like I once did, so I really enjoy being able to enter these FUN challenges.  I hope you're having a wonderfully creative week as well.  Thanks again for stopping by.

Blessings,

Karen
