Just a Coffee Note

 

CAS866 - Coffee

I love coffee. It is my go-to drink. I started by pulling out a Penny Black die cut and layering the pieces to give the coffee cup dimension. It was placed on a soft pink circle for a gentle pop of color. A pink ribbon was tied around the chevron-embossed background to add texture and a sweet finishing touch.

The sentiment was stamped directly onto the coffee cup, keeping the design clean and focused. To complete the card, I scattered a few candy dots for a playful accent.

Fishing Guy

Funny story about this card. I always show my DH and my little guy my cards when I get done and let them know the challenge. They both looked at me and said I colored the shirt the wrong color and I should have used flesh tones to show the other moon. Oh MEN!!! LOL!!!

Stamped the image and colored with copics. Masked the image and a circle and sponged in the sky to give a night time look to my fisherman.

Copics used: C0, C1, C3, C5, C7, E00, E31, E33, E35,  B000, B01, B02, B21, B23, B24, R24, R32, R37, R39, G12, G14, G17 & Y08

Red Tea Party

I love the Teapot Tuesday challenge on SCS especially when we get to exchange with others as we get to see their stunning cards in real life. This challenge was to use a Red Teapot on our cards. Very carefully using the masking technique I added two images to this card and colored with copics. It is always fun to have new card crafters join in the fun so if you are wanting to see some of these great cards we exchange every month on the last Tuesday of the month. We hope you come join the fun!

Copics used: C1, C3, R20, R24, R32, RV21, RV34, E31, E33, E51, Y21 and B32.

Day Lily Birthday

This was so super fun to play with to do this card. I don't often get a chance to use the water coloring brush I have but today I drug it out to play. Using five Tim Holtz distress inks and my water color brush I colored this cute flower. Then adding some layers and the oval to draw the eye in I mounted the flower after adding some dimension and sponging some brown around the flower and stem to get the flower to pop. Finished the flower off with some stickles and liquid pearls.

Distress inks used: Wild Honey, Special Marmalade, Scattered Straw, Peeled Paint and Mowed Lawn.
