Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop

Here's my card for the Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.  My winter inspired design features a mix of stamps and dies from from Clear and Simple Stamps.

The focal image is the to go cup from the Morning Brew:  Coffee set.  After stamping the image and cutting it out with the matching Coffee Cup die, I used Copic markers to color the image to look like one of the iconic red Starbucks cups.  The cup was adhered to a kraft cardstock panel over a strip of snowflake patterned paper I found in my scrap pile.  A piece of a taupe pearl flourish positioned at the top of the cup serves as a little plume of steam.I stamped the seasonal sentiment from the Well Preserved Jars:  Cocoa stamp set above the image and paper strip in black ink.  The finished panel was adhered to a coordinating green card base.
