Another card for Cathy's "Warm Up" WT challenge. It just so happened that a friend in work asked yesterday if I could make her a coffee themed birthday card. The birthday sentiment is inside on a die-cut coffee cup, along with some spatter and ring marks using Gorgeous Grunge and Timeless Textures.
For the front, I used the stamps I let Toni's coffee challenge enable me into buying . Mind you, I still am not a fan of the Stampendous cling stamps, and I think I'll probably add TIOO to this one as it fell off my clean block several times. I stamped it with Versamark on white card, embossed with clear EP and sponged with brown inks.
The kraft was embossed, distressed and I added a brad. The cup was stamped a couple of times and the lid and sleeve are fussy-cut and pieced back in. It's popped up on foam tape, as is the coffee layer. The background is some old BoBunny paper.

This came out cute, Sabrina. I love the offset panels and that bg is great. I just pulled the cling foam off all my Stampendous stamps and put TIOO on the back of the bare rubber. I'm happy now ;)

Cute! You have a great balance of colors on this card! Subtle but with a small pop of something brighter!
