I have combined two challenges today. Thanks, Sabrina for the technique challenge, CUTAWAY CORNER and thank you to Lee for the CAS challenge to feature coffee in some way.
I have used the alcohol/Blends technique to create what I think looks like some coffee stains on the vellum. There seems to be enough movement of ink on the vellum to enhance the stamped steam image coming from the cup.

Your vellum piece really makes this a fabulous card for me. the embossing and the other elements are great but without that vellum piece they would not be as impressive. It all works together and each piece enhances the other. Fabulous card!

Wonderful card -- love the colors and that great texture in the main panel. Your colored velum does accent your rising steam -- great job. Also love the brown offsets under the lettering. Great mix of the two challenges and a great card.
