Sometimes the simplest cards take the longest time for me, but I sure had fun with this one! I hadn't played with shaving cream for a long time and tonight I found a can and decided - why not?!
The background behind the Simon Says coffee cut die cut was created using the shaving cream technique. I embossed the base with Taylor Expressions brick embossing folder and cut the Verve coffee word die from shiny gold cardstock.
Thanks to these challenges for the inspiration...and the fun!
Great card. I do like the brick background in white. Fun card.
