Hug in a Mug Card

 

Hello Newton Fans!

On the blog today with a crafty coffee theme card!

I started this card off by stamping the Coffee Delights Stamp Set on to white cardstock.

I stamped 4 images vertically and then heat set with white embossing powder.

Next, I chose my Distress Ink colors that I wanted to have on the front of my card.

Carved Pumpkin, Peacock Feathers, and Prize Ribbon.

For each one of the distress colors I smushed the pad

 onto my craft mat and added a spritz of water.

Using a paint brush, I brushed over the embossed area revealing the image.

I repeated the process with each color to create my card front.

This card front must dry completely before going on to the next step.

While the card front was drying, I used the 3-inch stitched heart from the

Heart Frames Die Set and die cut out this heat using white card stock.

Using the A Hug in a Mug Die Set I die cut my background in white card stock

and my lettering in pumpkin orange cardstock.

I adhered both pieces together and put them aside so the glue could set up.

           With my card front now dry, I die-cut this out using the A7 Frames and Banners Die.

 I also created a card base with the same die.

Assembling this card is easy.

With the A7 card front and base together, I attached the stitched heart

 to the front of my card over the image.

Next, I centered my word die over the heart.

I attached this die to the heart foam tape.

For a last touch I used, matching orange Stickles on

top of the letters to add some sparkle.

I hope you try this technique in your card making!

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Stay craft everyone!
