Love You a Latte

Here’s my card for this month’s Sketch for You to Try. I made a love themed card using Reverse Confetti’s Be a Barista stamp set.

I stamped the set’s mug image on white cardstock and filled in the open space with the set’s solid latte image using kraft colored pigment ink. After coloring the mug with Copic markers, I cut it out and used foam tape to adhere it to a tag die cut. The “love you a” sentiment is stamped above the mug in black ink. I filled in the tag with a pair of die cut hearts, cut with Reverse Confetti’s Love Note dies, and a piece of pink knotted ribbon set at the top of the tag.

I adhered the tag to a pale pink stitched edge panel. It’s layered over a piece of patterned paper full of fun multicolored arrows. A strip of dark pink cardstock is tucked underneath the tag near the center of the cardfront and breaks up the pattern just a bit. I scattered a trio of pink sequins around the tag to add a little sparkle to finish the design.
