I'm just back from a week's vacation and am so happy to be stamping! I made a quick card for today's Limited Supplies challenge - to use a coffee image and the color orange.
I used this cute coffe cup image from Amuse and some barn board-looking DP from Cosmo Cricket.
I wanted this to be a masculine card but wanted to add something to the corners (nothing frilly!).
- and then I saw a scrap of thin cork board on my table and thought that would fit the bill! I punched 3 circles out of it and added them to the corners.
I sponged and distressed the edges and added the ribbon, without a knot or bow, behind the image. Inside - a simple 'Happy Birthday'.

Oh my goodness, I love your cork embellishments, how cool is that!! Your A Muse image is perfect for this and the paper enhances it so nicely. Well done, Julia!
