Coffee Lovers Blog Hop



Well, I'm not a "coffee lover", but I am a lover of making cute coffee-themed cards,
so I thought I'd play along with the Coffee Lovers Bloghop.

I decided to break out my Reverse Confetti Be A Barista set for the occasion.
I was playing with some "coffee house" ideas, and decided to go with a chalkboard
technique card, so I gathered up a bunch of my Reverse Confetti sets and made this:


The background was stamped with versa mark and heat embossed in white 
using sentiments from In a Big WayClass ActForever Fall

I die cut the banner using the largest tag from Tag Me & stamped the Be A Barista
image and sentiment in versa fine black and then heat embossed it in clear.
Then, I stamped the foam in versa mark & heat embossed it in white.
I paper-pieced the stripe on the mug using aqua mist card stock.
