Karen is our hostess in the Color Challenge this week, and she has invited us to make a project using Soft Suede, Pool Party and Berry Burst. The dessert option this week is "solid stamping." I'm interpreting that to mean not an outline stamp that gets colored in, but rather a stamp that "stands on its own."
I decided on a coffee theme, and used the coffee ring stamp from Timeless Textures to create my own patterned background layer. I also used a "solid stamp" for the sentiment, stamped in VersaMark and then heat set. You can tell I really want dessert this week!
I die cut the coffee cup, lid and holder, and inlaid a die-cut heart, and popped the cup up on foam tape. A few sequins and Nuvo drops completed the card.

What a wonderful card this is Barbara. Coffee and tea warm our hearts just thinking about them, then you added this terrific sentiment to warm the heart even more. I love the bistro feel of this card and the warmth it evokes, and I know the recipient will love it too! ~Karen.

This card is brilliant Barbara! I struggled a bit with the colors, but you came up with the perfect answer with your coffee theme! Love the Timeless Textures rings in the background and the pretty heart on the cup wrapper. You even got dessert!
