We hope you'll play along!  The LEAD of this challenge will be invited as a Guest Designer in a future challenge!  Please visit the Curtain Call Challenge blog for all the challenge info and deadline.   

Coffee & Friends card-designed by Lori Tecler/Inking Aloud-stamps and dies from Lil' Inker Designs
 Here's my take on the inspiration photo.  I based my design on the yummy looking iced coffees that are front and center in the photo.  My iced coffees are to go cups from the Lil' Inker Designs Coffee Talk stamp set.  I colored them up with Copic markers, then used the matching dies to cut out the colored cups and the contrasting green straws.  After adding some foam tape to the back of each cup, I placed them on a cream panel, overlapping and angling them for interest. To go with the cups, I stamped the "coffee and friends are the perfect blend" sentiment from the Coffee Cozy set in white pigment ink on a dark brown cardstock strip, then heat embossed the words in white so they'd really pop against the dark background.  I added the sentiment to the cream panel, tucking one end beneath the to go cup pair.  The finished panel was adhered to a dark brown card base to match the sentiment strip.
