Coffee Loving Cardmakers + Verve Stamps

Today, I’m over on the Coffee Loving Cardmakers blog sharing a card inspired by one of our lovely sponsors,  Verve Stamps!

With several coffee themed items in their store, I chose to use the brand new Coffee Helps set along with the coordinating Cup for All Seasons Die Set and the Coffee Word Die.

I stamped only portions of the sentiment stamp so that I could use the die cut coffee word along with it.  I stamped and die cut the little coffee cup before coloring it with Copic markers.  I added sparkle to the cupcake frosting using a clear Wink of Stella brush marker before popping the cup up with foam dots.  Pink sequins & clear gemstones were added as embellishments.  The main panel was mounted on a piece of black cardstock before being popped up on the kraft cardstock base using foam dots.

I’m continuing to adjust to the time change today, but figure it will take me most of the week to fully do so!  This spring time change seems throw me off more so than the one in the fall.  I feel for the kids who now have to get up an hour earlier than their little bodies are used to.  DS1, especially, will feel this one since he usually gets up around 6 a.m. for school!

Looking forward to spring’s official start in less than a week!  Can you believe it’s almost here?!

Have a marvelous Monday!
