It may or may not have come up on this blog that "someone" has a bit of a passion for coffee.
So "someone" made this card to give to her sister who shares the passion for coffee and also has a thing for the color brown.
Seriously, as a child, my sister felt sorry for the color brown because no one liked it, so she claimed it as her favorite color.
I love my sister.
Anyway, this was a fun card to make. The sleeve on the cup was stamped on a scrap and glued down because I ruined two pieces of paper trying to stamp it directly on the cup.
I do not love two-step stamping. This "not love" will be the source of a future
As for the card, it displays the Kaleidacolor Cappuccino pad in shades of brown. Brown: it's not just for autumn anymore.
In eight hours I will have a coffee cup in my hand. That really is the only certainty about tomorrow. Everything else is just wild speculation. Apparently, Ms. Hoffman and I lead parallel lives or something.
Good night.
Supplies
stamps: Papertrey (cup), CAS-ual Friday (sentiment)
ink: Kaleidacolor cappuccino
paper: Papertrey white
accessories: clear rhinestone hearts, Copic marker, craft foam, glue
How sweet of your sister to give brown some love. I used to avoid multi-step stamps until I got a MISTI, now I seek them out. They can make lovely one layer cards and the stamping tool prevents me from tearing my hair out over mistakes.
ReplyDeleteLove your fabulous card - beautiful design and wonderful colors! I agree with Carol that MISTI makes stamping multi-step stamps so much easier :)
ReplyDeleteI feel sorry for brown also ... it can be hard to love. However I will NEVER feel that sorry for it that I would say its my favorite. Your sister is very kind and you are even kinder to make something for her that makes brown look so beautiful :)
