This card is for today's sketch challenge 1000 - 1000! Can you believe it? And also for today's Alphabet Challenge letter L for Louisiana (we are focused on locations this round).
I created the background using Simon Says Stamp's Stepped Back Blocks layering stencils in Mardi Gras colors and added a diagonal path of music notes because Louisiana is known for Mardi Gras and also for music.
I die cut my circle and stamped my coffee cup coloring it with Copics. I colored it like the coffee cups at Cafe Du Monde in New Orleans and I can just taste the yummy beignets I would have with the coffee! A must stop if you make it to New Orleans! I cut my Daffodil Delight pieces and stamped the sentiment on them. For ease of mailing, all layers are adhered flat.
I stamped my music notes inside as well along with an inside sentiment.
Thanks for the challenges and thanks for looking!

The colors are so vivid, Catherine! My father and step mom lived in New Orleans, and he loved his hickory strong coffee! This brought back memories. Great card for your L location!

Super card, Catherine. I love coffee cards and this one is fun with the bright colors and music notes. Fun. Hugz
