They Should Just Call It...

Hey there!  I am so glad you stopped by today!  As I mentioned yesterday, I will be guest designing over at Skipping Stones Design.  If you haven't checked out their stamps you must!  Today I am sharing my card using sketch #66 with the Funny Coffee set.  Oh my this sentiment just makes me laugh, hard!  I LOOOVE coffee!  I don't quite feel human without my morning cup so when I saw this sentiment I knew it would be used.


I started with a cream card base, cut a patterned paper strip, adhered that.  Cut a blue cardstock strip which I border punched and adhered.


Die cut my label, stamped my coffee cup, masked it and stamped the ring.  Stamped the cup again onto Kraft cardstock, cut out the sleeve, stamped the logo and adhered it to the cup image.


Tied on some twine, stamped my sentiment onto cream cardstock, cut out and popped up with foam.


Lastly, I matted my label onto more blue cardstock and cut around it to create my border. 

I hope you enjoyed todays masculine card and you play along with us!  Have a great day!

Lindsay
