Mount the entire panel onto a white card base.

Die cut the leaves from the Ink Drops- Sunset 6x6 paper pad, score the centers of the leaves, scrunch a bit by hand.

De-static a piece of white cardstock with an embossing powder tool, ink the Give Thanks verse sentiment with Versafine Onyx Black ink , stamp onto the prepared cardstock, apply clear embossing powder, heat set with a heat tool.

Once the embossing has cooled, die cut with an oval die (die cutting a second oval from dark purple cardstock to layer behind the sentiment oval). 

Adhere the die cut leaves to the card front before adding the die cut oval sentiment with dimensional foam.

To finish off the card, add a few latte pearls to the upper left-hand corner and on the lower right of the oval sentiment.

Plus, it is time for the  National Coffee Day 2023 Blog Hop and Stamp Simply is a Super Sponsor!

I decided to create a black and white with a "pop" of color coffee card using the Have A Cup on Us Bundle along with the Sunflower Season stamp set (using a fun masking technique). 

As many of you who follow my blog know, I enjoy playing along with online challenges, so I am linking this card to the Can You Handle the Pressure “Anything Goes with optional twist Bees/Beehive” Challenge.

To create this card:

Emboss a 4 ¼” x 5 ½” piece of white cardstock with the Sizzix 3D Texture Fades A6 Intertwine Embossing Folder.

Trim the panel to approx. 4” x 5 ¼” and mount onto a 4 ¼” x 5 ½” piece of black cardstock.

De-static a piece of the Sunset Ink Drops paper (approx. 2” x 4” piece) with an embossing powder tool, ink the sentiment from Have A Cup On Us with Versafine Onyx Black, apply clear embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool.

FYI- my piece of ink drops paper is approx. 2” x 4” and is part of a cut off from a previous project- I love using up my scraps!

Mount onto black cardstock (approx. 2 ¼”x 4 ¼”) and adhere to the embossed panel. 

Wrap a piece of the black and white baker’s twine over the panel and adhere the entire panel onto a 4 ¼” x 5 ½” white card base.

De-static a piece of white cardstock with an embossing powder tool, ink the coffee cup stamp from Have A Cup on Us with Versafine Onyx Black, apply clear embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool.

Once the embossing has cooled, stamp the coffee cup image onto a sticky note or masking paper, carefully cut out the cup to keep the outside covered, and mask around the coffee cup image.

De-static the coffee cup image with an embossing powder took, ink the sunflower image from Sunflower Season with Versafine Onyx Black, apply clear embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool.

Remove the masking paper and die cut the coffee cup with the coordinating Have a Cup On Us die.
