BREAK TIME!

EVEN THOUGH IM NOT A COFFEE DRINKER, I CANT HELP BUT WANT TO TAKE A SIP...


I originally made this card for one challenge I had in mind, but now it'll be entered into three...it's funny how things seem to work out.  Maybe it's for the best though.

My card will be entered into the color challenge and the Design Team call over at gofishchallenges.blogspot.com and also the Bakery challenge over at bittenbythebug2.blogspot.com.  I dont know if I'll be selected for the DT or not, but I'll never know unless I give it a try...Nothin' ventured, nothin' gained and no matter what,  just keep doing what I love to do!



Mmmm!

This card was made with the following "lite" cartridge and measurements.  Love You a Latte-cup #1, cut at 3 1/2 inches and cupcake #3, cut at 3 inches.

This card was pretty easy to make, in that only one cartridge was used and I didnt have to switch out.
As you can see, I used a burnt orange cardstock for the base of the card and then matted a patterned paper to a dark brown piece of cardstock.  I then added a piece of ribbon and a bow for some detail to the side. and give it balance.

I also used brown ink for some depth/shadow and Glossy Accents on the coffee and the honey bun (dark brown part)...the bun itself was cut using glitter paper.  I used a premade tag, but cut matching paper to fit and placed a stamped sentiment and ribbon on it for the finishing touches. 

All the images have pop dots of different thickness to give that extra feel of dimension and the tag is only popped on the right side outer edge.

Thanks for taking the time to have a look...hope you like it.  Kathie
