It's time!!! Love when the Coffee Lover's Blog Hop happens...having lived in Seattle for almost 18 years.....I have a good collection of coffee themed items...so I love to participate in this hop!! So...welcome to my first card for the Spring/Summer Coffee Lover's Blog Hop!
I've been watercoloring a lot lately and enjoying the feel of imperfection that can come from using this medium. For my first card I stamped the images from the Warmth of Winter Unity KOTM 12/14 onto watercolor paper using Versafine black ink. I then used Prima Pan Watercolors to color her in. I just love this image and have used it a lot for cooler weather greeting cards and projects.
I then trimmed the image and rounded the corners. I then inked the edges and added some glossy accents to the heart on her cup. I then rounded the corners on the pattern paper and added it to the card base; rounding the corners on it as well.
Since tomorrow is Monday....this sentiment is very true...Caffeine is a girl's best friend...
I hope you will pull out your coffee themed items and join in the fun! I've got a few more cards in the works...
Happy crafting...Lynda
