Coffee & cards with Deb & Celeste / August 2022

As summer is coming to an end, Celeste and I are back with some new cards to inspire you !! And I have a new  ( to me ) coffee shop to tell you about !! For our theme this month, we went back to an old favorite ..  And the reason that Celeste and I started these blog posts - our love of COFFEE !! 

This month, I used a fabulous stamp  set from Unity Stamp Company - Take a Break . It's been a rough year for me and the sentiment I used reflects how I feel most days . Creating cards has been almost like therapy for me and my crafty friends are a Godsend. 

 

• I stamped the sentiment and coffee girl on white cardstock with Ranger Jet Black Archival Ink .
• The heart was stamped with a Lady Bug Memento Dew Drop ink pad .
• I colored the image with my COPICS .
• The completed panel was adhered to a turquoise card base.
• Icicle Stickles Glitter Glue was used on some of the coffee steam.
  

I'm sure that Celeste has created an amazing coffee-themed card . You can take a look over at her blog - Crafting Junky .  Are you a coffee drinker ?? Do you create coffee - or tea - cards ?? Leave a comment here on my blog telling me your drink of choice and I will choose someone to get a bit of coffee blog candy. 

For my drink this month, I tried a new-to-me local coffee shop - 17 Hands Coffee . They have a wide variety of flavors, but this time I chose a Toasted Marshmallow Latte. It was really delicious .. I paired it with a piece of Sausage / Potato quiche.  I will definitely be returning to this new favorite .. 

Thank you for visiting Meticulosity . Celeste and I appreciate your support !! 

Until next time -- September and hopefully Fall temperatures !!

Stay Creative !!
