My card for the CAS challenge (bows) and teapot Tuesday challenge (Horace the talk of the chorus). I was inspired by the striped teapot cookie, and wanted to brighten Felicia's day by sending some of her favorites (coffee#.
I have to admit, I went nuts on the cup, but I love the outcome. The image is stamped with Close to Cocoa ink and Versamark and embossed in clear EP with coffee grounds #Smells like coffee - OH YEAH!#. Then the heart was inked in Handsome hunter and real red markers, cut out and ran through my xyron machine upside down and covered in dazzling diamonds. And finally the whipped topping was stamped on and filled in with Puffy paint. It looks #and smells) good enough to drink.

That is as cool (or should I say HOT) as can be. I would have never thought of mixing coffee grounds for the aroma, great idea. It indeed looks good enough to drink. I love the glitz and puff of whipped cream. TFS

What a festive card. Love all the smells and details. I can almost smell your coffee--yum. Love the colors, love the festive-ness of the card, and love that Felicia will be receiving this card.
Thanks for being so creative and for sharing that creativity.
