Coffee and Friends
I am still trying to put my craft room back together and can't find half my supplies (more like 75 percent of them) but I did manage to find my Reverse Confetti stamp set, Be a Barista, and this interesting leafy die cut that I made on my friend's Cricut machine some time ago. I played around with the various options and managed to cut this lovely shape out...and then never used it on anything! I thought that the patterned paper looked much like a yummy latte, and so I carefully glued it onto some deep chocolate card stock...layered it all on kraft, and added a paper-pieced mug of coffee. I love that deep corally color...which I made with my ink blender and some dye ink. This photo is really awful with all the shadows and lack of detail, but that tiny heart is embossed with an embossing folder by Darice...then punched. I am entering this in the Fall Coffee Lovers Hop and hope to make at least one other card, even if I can't find the rest of my coffee stamps!
