Espresso Some Thanks!

It’s not often that I figure out a way to create a card specifically for two challenges. When I have more than one challenge to enter, it’s usually just good luck. Today, however, I sat down to make a card for Just Us Girls and Inspired By . . . and it worked out perfectly.

I knew I had a couple sets of coffee themed stamps, and “Be A Barista” by Reverse Confetti also included the cute sentiment which fit the Inspired By . . . challenge. 

It’s been awhile since I used a tag on a card, but this “Stitched Dress Up Tag” by Simon Says was jus the right size. The patterned paper used for the top of the tag was a loose piece in my stash so I have no idea where it came from. I stamped and colored the two lattes and fussy cut them. I like how the stamp came with two different designs for the latte. I’m strictly a black coffee drinker–no sugar, no cream–so I’m not sure what you call those lovely designs the baristas are able to create. 

I’ve always loved this “Square Grid” embossing folder by Alexandra Renke and it provided just the right contrast for the tag.

A little twine on the tag, and it was done! I’ll be back on Tuesday with a fun announcement, so check back then to see what’s up!
