My hubby knows that for me a hot cup of coffee (especially on a rough day) is almost as amazing as a bouquet of roses. So giving thissss girl a sweet cup of coffee and flowers... you have to wonder what he wants - lol.
So for my recent Breakfast Club class we started off with a piping cup of coffee (some had hot apple cider - lol). Thissss card is what we created (well, there are two options) and it was such fun!
Perfect Blend (#131392) is the stamp set with this uber cute cup (and two fun sayings). Here is a BRIGHT Way to Kick Off our weekend. The Gingham Garden (#129310) Designer Series Paper is very bright and with a vintage flower and gingham look.
Stamping this cup three times with Versa Mark(#102283) on the Whisper White card stock (#100730) and the Island Indigo gingham and Daffodil Delight flower sheet. Pouring the Black Embossing Powder (#109133) and heat set with the Heat Tool/Gun (#129053) for a sharp look.
Using the amazing Paper Snips (#103579) a MUST HAVE for all crafters, cut out the individual sections. Adhere, using our SNAIL adhesive (#104332) piece by piece to the white embossed cup image - starting with the Daffodil Delight floral and polka dot paper. Make the cup cozy in Island Indigo gingham pop when you raise it above the others with the Stampin' Dimensional adhesive (#104430).
This subtle pop up of the cozy adds dimension and depth - a fun little touch.
Layered over our Tea Lace Paper Doily (#129399) that was cut in 1/2 for a frilly neutral that helps to separate this bold cup from the Melon Mambo (#115320) card stock base.
Washi it up.... adding fun coordinated accents to the inside of cards is a great way to continue the love! Here adding the Gingham Garden Designer Washi Tape (#129314) to the inside. It's a whimsical accent. Tie in the doily with the Delicate Details Lace Tape (#130966) to coordinate with the front Doily.
So - for those who don't LOVE the Perfect Blend... take the card in a slightly different direction with the Secret Garden stamp set (#129144) and coordinating Secrete Garden Framelits (#129372). The same layout as the bright coffee card with the change up.
Embossing the flowers in the White Embossing Powder (#109132) for a bright look. Yippee-Skippee greeting stamp set (#131341) is a fun and funky set of sayings that go right along with this bright card!
Adding our adhesive backed Pearl Basic Jewels to the flower centers... or do as Christine did and snag my permanent markers (I recently purchased a large pkg of Bics and the colors were very close to OUR Colors! Whoot! Whoot!!). She had fun coloring the pearls for her card... for a color loving momma... it's a perfect fit!
Again, a Coordinated inside allows for the fun to live on! Look like you are giving some extra love!
