Let’s Coffee Soon - CTD650

Hi there! Happy Wednesday! It’s time for this week’s Color Throwdown Challenge where we have the colors yellow, gray, black and white to create with.

Today I’m sharing another fun Colorado Craft Company slimline card that I created using the Coffee House stamp set and Coffee House dies. These were illustrated by the talented Anita Jeram and they couldn’t be cuter.

I started out by die cutting a piece of white card stock using the Small Slimline with Flaps die and using that as my base for all of my images that I stamped, die cut and colored using copic markers. These little mice are so fun to color! You can add detail to any of the images like I did here (see photo below) with the coffee cup by adding a few stripes or like I did in my last post by adding flowers to the cups. Before adhering my images to my white panel, I also add shadow lines so it doesn’t look my images are floating.

Once my images were colored, I used foam tape to pop up the two mice with the coffee grinder and the right front mouse holding up the coffee cup. I matted my white panel with more mustard card stock and adhered both pieces to a black slimline card base.
