Time to share a card that I made for a few challenges:
- Retro Sketches - RS#100
- Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge - CCIC#14
- CAS - Colours & Sketches - CASC&S#60
Stamps: Impression Obsession - Smell the Coffee; Verve - Better with You; Lil' Inkers - Coffee Cozy; Stampin' Up! - Tea Shoppe; Hero Arts - Need Caffeine
Inks: SU - Marina Mist, Pear Pizzazz, Chocolate Chip
Dies: Lil' Inkers - Coffee Cozy
Accessories: White Lustre Card; SU Card - Marina Mist; Copics; Linen Thread
I used almost all my coffee stamps sets on this card! Yes, I know I've a lot, but I adore coffee!!!! I used the Retro Sketch for the layout, the colours from CAS - Colour & Sketches and the inspiration from Curtain Call, although I did change it from cocoa to coffee.
I made the background from a mat of blue and a white panel stamped steaming with coffee cups, which I coloured with Copics and then cut into bands. Instead of buttons I used little coffee cups. I kept the main panel fairly simple with a bold sentiment, some thread and the steaming coffee cup which I adhered with dimensional gel. The little coffee band was coloured with Copics. On the inside I did a mat layer in blue, some coffee stains and a little pun sentiment!
I had lots of fun with this card. I'm keeping this one in my stash. I tend to have lots of cards ready to give to Jonathan - just because! That's all for now. I've got a lot of housework to catch up on, some cards to make and I want to try and find the Winter Olympics online. See you tomorrow for our new challenge at 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown! Bye, be safe.
