This was one of those cards that started with no plan at all....just had the paper and stamp out and one thing led to another! The background stamp is by Hampton Arts. The little coffee stamp is by Hero Arts, and the coffee rings are by CHF. I colored two images with Copics. I cut and layered the cups with a pop dot. I wanted the "steam" to adhere directly to the cup (Which is popped out), so I used brown liquid applique directly on a transparency. I did not heat it because I wanted it to look dark and wet. When it was dry I cut around the steam and glued it directly to the cup. I stamped a couple of coffee beans and used crystal effects on them. I then cut those out and adhered everything to the glittered heart by Melissa Frances. The sentiment was cut out using my Nestibilities. I finished it off with some brown, plaid ribbon and cream colored floss.

Well, I went to the Copic class with
Simone today. The class was taught by
Marianne Walker. (Check out her blog if you are looking for some great tips on using your Copics) This woman is an amazing artist! She draws and colors like nobody's business! I learned some great techniques that I am hoping to play with more soon! I did manage to color a few images today, so I am hoping to make cards out of 'em!
Thanks so much for stopping by today!
