I'm so excited to share my card featuring some of my new Sweet 'n Sassy coffee/tea themed faves!!

To start, I blended several colors of distress oxide onto the slimline card base.  I  stamped the corners of the card using one of the stamps in the Textured Tiles #9 stamp set and then added one of the sentiments from the Coffee Talk set to the base.

I LOVE THESE CUPS from the I Like Big Cups set!!  They are big, bold and absolutely perfect for paper piecing which is one of my favorite techniques!  I used pattern papers from Carta Bella Home Again 6x6 pad which are beautiful designs.  To finish, I added these cute Kat Scrappiness Coffee Bean embellishments.

 
 
I really do love my coffee...it's like a rainbow in a cup! 


For my next card, I created a watercolor rainbow background with distressed oxide inks.  I stamped the coffee stain images using one of the stamps from the Texture Tiles #9 set then stamped, cut and colored these super cute cups from the Coffee Talk set.  To finish, I stamped one of the fun sentiments from the Coffee Talk set.
