Here’s my card for this week’s Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge. I used the new A Little Latte Suite which comes out as an Online Exclusive on March 5th.
This is the sketch that I used. The Designer Series Paper was perfect to use for this design.
Tips & Instructions
Early Espresso Card Base - 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, score at 4 1/4
Basic White Layer - 5 1/4 x 4
A Little Latte Designer Series Paper - Cut 4 strips:
5 1/4 x 1
5 1/4 x 3/4
5 1/4 x 1 1/4
5 1/4 x 3/4
Adhere the strips to the white layer and then to the card base.
Stamp the cup image on a scrap of Basic White in Pecan Pie Ink. Color with a light Lost Lagoon Stampin’ Blends Marker. Stamp the coffee inside the cup in Pecan Pie ink.
Stamp the spoon on a scrap of Basic White in Black Memento ink. Color with a light Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Marker.
Die cut the cup and spoon using the Latte Love Dies. Cut off the bottom of the spoon and adhere the handle to the cup using a little glue at the bottom of it.
Stamp the sentiment in Lost Lagoon Ink on a scrap of Basic White and fussy cut around it. Adhere it to the side of the cup.
Die cut a piece of Basic White and a piece of Vellum using the 5th from smallest Deckled Circles Die.
Adhere the cup and sentiment to the Vellum circle with Dimensionals. Adhere the Vellum circle to the white circle putting adhesive only behind the images so you don’t have the adhesive showing through the Vellum.
Adhere the circle to the card.
Add some Adhesive-Backed Swirl Dots.
On the inside layer (4 x 5 1/4) stamp sentiment in Lost Lagoon Ink. I colored just the words that I wanted on the stamp with a Stampin’ Write Marker and stamped it. You can also cover the words you don’t want with a Post-It Note and ink it up with an ink pad.
Die cut 2 small cups from the Designer Series Paper and 2 small coffee images from the back of that Designer Series Paper and adhere to the layer.
The patterns on this paper are so fun with those hearts in the cream, the splatters and the coffee rings.
