My friend Michael Trent is doing 30 Days of Halloween/Autumn Cards for the month of September . I decided to surprise him today and join in on the fun with him . And since he frequently tortures me by using googly eyes on his cards ( which I am not too fond of ), I decided to make a card with them - just to show how much I value our friendship !! And if I am being honest, I'm actually really thrilled with the card I made.I think my love of all things coffee has made me more tolerant of the googly eyes on this card ..
- I stamped the 3 Coffee cup images from the Ellen Hutson stamp set - Boos Inside - ( now retired ) on white, yellow and orange designer paper with Memento Tuxedo Black ink.
- The cups were cut out with matching dies.
- On Kraft card bases, I adhered strips of Halloween Fun Designer paper from Impression Obsession .
- I stamped the sentiment from the Boos Inside stamp set with green inks on scraps of paper from my stash.
- I adhered the sentiment panel next to the Halloween paper on the card base,
- The coffee cups were adhered in a stack above the sentiment.
- And last, but definitely NOT least, I placed glow-in-the-dark googly eyes on the ghost and cat coffee cups !!
