It's time once again for the Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop !! I couldn't miss the chance to link up one of my favorite types of cards - Coffee themed !! You can find all the details HERE at their website . There are many amazing sponsors who donate fabulous prizes . All you need to do is link up a card during the Hop for a chance to win.. Next month is National Letter-Writing Month and I am in a group that assigns pen-pals for the month . So I spend lots of time writing letters to mine ( and a few others ) .. These digi stamps from Twistoon were perfect for creating my card .. Me with my address book, coffee and letters to write !!
- I first printed the digi stamps on Strathmore Marker Paper - both by Twistoon - Window Letter and Home School Teacher Books .
- The book/coffee cup was fussy-cut and colored. The Window image was trimmed, then colored. Both were colored with my COPICS.
- I also printed the Window image on a piece of floral paper, fussy-cut the curtains and adhered them to the Window image.
- The book and coffee cup were popped up on the windowsill with foam tabs.
- I adhered the entire completed digi to a piece of green polka-dotted paper.
- A Tim Holtz Idea-ology sticker sentiment was placed at the lower right of the digi image.
- The completed panel was adhered to a Kraft card base.
- Pralines & Cream glitter was added to the coffee steam.
This card has to be one of my favorites !! You know how sometimes it all seems to come together when you are making a card and you are pleased with the finished product ?? That is how this one made me feel. No second-guessing or agonizing over what to add next .. Everything in the universe aligned and I was totally happy !! You will have to head over to Twistoon - they have some great Coffee stamps ( check out that link ) .. And even a few Tea stamps. Thanks so much for visiting Meticulosity - I always look forward to these Coffee Lovers Blog Hops and have to give a shout out to Amy Tsuruta and her team for all of their hard work during these Hops.
