Today I am participating in a Blog Hop with Joy Clair Stamps. Below is my "Coffee" card. I am not a coffee drinker but I do have lots of friends who do, so this will apply to them.
I used the Coffee stamp set called, "Coffee Talk" Clear Stamps from Joy Clair Stamps. I took some watercolor paper and stamped the word, "coffee" in versamark and used clear embossing powder to heat emboss. I then used the "smooch" method to apply some brown Distress Inks. I then layered that with a darker brown paper.
Next, I ran some light brown paper through my Sizzix with a coffee embossing folder to have another layer of texture.
Then I stamped the coffee image on the same light brown paper with the same Distress Inks I used to "smooch". I cut out the image and colored with some Leisure Arts Premium Colored Pencils. I also stamped one of the "latte" foam images in white craft ink and used some white heat embossing powder on it to make it look more realistic. I mounted it on my card with foam adhesive.
Lastly, I stamped my sentiment with versamark on some pink paper and heat embossed it with white embossing powder. I duck tailed cut the edge and mounted it also on some foam adhesive.
That's all!! Hope you like my contribution to the coffee hop! Please sign up for my email so you don't miss any new posts with new cards and ideas! Have fun "hopping"!!

DeleteYour card is so fun! I am fond of the embossed images on your background! Super great idea to add texture but not bulk and the part with coffee all over it that looks like you spilled coffee on it but was able to wipe up everything but the word coffee; FANTASTIC! All the way to the powdered sugar dust on the top of your mug in heart shapes! A really creative card! Super-duper neat!
ReplyDeleteThank you for all your kind words. I appreciate it!
