I'm in full steam coffee drinking mode now that school's in session and the air is turning crisp. So when I sat down to make today's card, the first thing on my mind was the coffee cup from the Get Together set. I stamped it directly on two different patterns of paper, fussy cut, then slit a teeny line in the coffee section to tuck in the steam from the Coffee set that I stamped onto vellum, fussy cut and added some white gel pen accents. I added a panel of vellum for the sentiment (from Harvest Blessings), to mute the patterned paper below it, then added a bunch of Harvest Gold sequins and some gold thread. I seriously just had to walk away because I kept adding things!
At the end I stamped the houndstooth leaf in cajun crazy, fussy cut then covered with a coat of glossy glaze and glitter. The background is embossed with leaves and then lightly sponged with vintage photo ink.
That's all for today! I hope you have a fantastic weekend! If you have a little free time, be sure to play along with our Autumn Lovelies inspiration challenge. Thanks so much for stopping by!
