I made this for Jen's DTGD challenge. This fun week is our thanks to all the Fan Club members who support SCS through their subscriptions.
If you're not a Fan Club member, you can find out more HERE.
If you're already a Fan Club member, hop on over to the challenge forum HERE and join in the fun for some great inspiration and the chance to win prizes. It was also a great opportunity for me to catch up with TLC694 which I missed because I was enjoying some Greek sunshine and beautiful beaches .
I used a fan brush to add a wash of colour to the background, then when dry stamped the images. The cups are embossed with regular clear EP, I used Iridescent Ice on the steam. I coloured the cups and then used bleach to lift all the colour from the coffee inside, so it looks like milky coffee. Added Nuvo clear drops to cover all the mugs.
Background stamped chalkboard-style on black card and added to a kraft base. I punched the top of the watercolour panel with SU's spiral punch, then added a raffia bow and popped my sentiment up on foam.

This is great. The color you choose looks like you did a coffee wash. All the little details of embossing and clear Nuvo-I bet in person this is nice in the hand. The touch of sparkle in the steam and the bleached coffee swirls-those swirls are perfect!

Love this coffee card Sabrina! The notebook page suits the image and sentiemnt perfectly, the chalkboard style is very "coffee shop" and all the detail of the EP and Nuvo drops make perfect finishing touches! My DH would love this too!

Brilliant to bleach out for detail in tops of coffee cups - love the whole assembly, and topic! Thanks for being supportive during - and for playing along with DTGD!
