Life happens, coffee helps!


Thursday is definitely a good day for coffee!
Who am I kidding, everyday is a good day!!
I made this card for a boy who loves his coffee and a little bit of chocolate on the side
and the stamp and die set I used is called
I teamed it up with some
Mint Macaroon and Crumb Cake card stock
I stamped using Early Expresso classic ink pad
I stamped his name using a stamp set called
a must have for personalising your cards

How I made my card:
I matted and layered my a5 card using mint macaroon and then stamped
the background using early expresso and the rim from one of my small embossing bottles.
I stamped a few coffee beans on there too.
I then cut two strips of crumb cake card and embossed on my simply scored board
scoring on every line to give that ribbed look.
I then wrapped twine round both ribbed layers and stuck in place.
I stamped and die cut all the coffee cups, stirrers, beans and lids
and added to my card using dimensionals.
The little chocolate bar was made up from scraps of gold card,
dsp, crumb cake card and  a stamped bean.
I finished off by tying a small bow in the twine.

I would like to enter this into:
