Celeste and I are here with our February coffee and cards posts . Celeste chose a fabulous inspiration photo for us to use this month .. Not too surprising that it is full of hearts and lots of RED !!! I used a stamp set that I have had for awhile and just had to pull out for February ..
From the inspiration photo, I decided to use hearts and some red .. Then I just did my own thing with the rest of the design !! The retired Eat, Play Love -cardmaking stamp set from Close To My Heart was the perfect choice for my card ..
- I stamped the images on white cardstock with Memento Dew Drop inks - Tuxedo Black/ jar, Love Letter/ saying, Peanut Brittle/ rolling pin, Toffee Crunch /cutting board and Gray Flannel / whisk .
- The coordinating dies were used to cut out the pieces.
- A piece of patterned paper from the Dear Lizzy "Lucky Charm" paper pad was trimmed to fit the front of a turquoise card base.
- Fabulous Alena Laser-cut Elements from 49 and Market were placed at the top of the patterned paper - a teal scalloped border and a silver heart .
- I colored the top of the mason jar and the heart with COPIC markers.
- The jar was adhered to the patterned paper with foam dimensionals.
- The whisk, rolling pin and cutting board were adhered to the mason jar near the turquoise heart.
- The completed patterned paper panel was then adhered to a turquoise card base.
Celeste has her February card over at her blog - Crafting Junky . I'm sure it will be as fabulous as all of her cards .I love seeing how each of us interprets the inspiration photo each month. This month I am using a cute Cherry Blossom Tervis insulated tumbler cup. I'm drinking an Iced Cold Brew Vanilla Almond Latte from Califa Farms . I'll be taking that cup to work - coffee is a very important part of my 12 hour shifts !!
Celeste and I will be back again in March with some springtime inspiration .. We are both so grateful that you stopped by to see our February cards.
Until next time - Stay Creative ..
