I had so much fun with this month’s stamp releases at Flourishes that I made a number of cards that I still want to show you. Today’s card is with the set Grab a Cup. Since I’m cozy in my warm house after a big snowstorm and I just finished a lovely cup of hot chocolate I had to use this one today.
Doesn’t this cup of latte look yummy? I really wanted to give this design a cozy feel so I stamped the cup onto Flourishes Classic Kraft cardstock, cut it out with our Flourishes Perfectly Pierced Classic Window Die and then coloured it up with my prismacolor pencils. I wanted it to have a dreamy feel with lots of steamy white rising from the cup too. I paper pieced the napkin in the design with this great Echo Park Reflections Fall designer paper that I also used on the rest of the card too.
The coffee beans are stamped in Memento Morocco and Espresso Truffle ink. I think the coffee beans are some of my favourite parts of the set :) Then I added a little Rich Chocolate Brown Seambinding ruffled along the edge and enamel dots as simple accents. In case you were wondering the card is 5 x 5 in size.
And lastly the inside of the card….a good card to share with a friend on any occasion!
I truly love this set :)
