A BIG Congrats to my friend, Beth, the newest Featured Stamper on Splitcoast! Beth has such a fab gallery & it was really hard to chose, but I finally went w/ THIS card to case. I kept the coffee theme & most of the colors, but I used different images, an embossing folder instead of a stamped background & moved the greeting to a circle element.
With the fall like temps weÂ’ve had this week, IÂ’m thinking it might be time for some Pumpkin Spice Latte! IÂ’m not a big fan of pumpkin anything, but it sounds good. I thought I had one of those go cup dies, but I didnÂ’t so I used this fancy one instead. After I die cut the cups I sponged the edges & cut one handle off & put it on the other side so they could be facing each other. The Bee Trail was stamped w/ the Distress ink to serve as steam & I added a small label & little pumpkin to each cup. The kraft bg was embossed & the edges sponged then the larger pumpkin & greeting were added.
Congrats again, Beth! Thanks so much for looking. Closeups, the inside & Copic colors are on my blog:The Write Stuff
