Hello and happy national coffee day! I'm not a coffee drinker, although I do enjoy a Peppermint Mocha a few times a year. My preferred drink is a London Fog tea latte with soy. And... sorry... I'm not a fan of Pumpkin Spice lattes, but that didn't stop me from creating a Pumpkin Spice themed card. The Coffee Lovers blog hop is going on so make sure you hop around for a chance to win fabulous prizes! I started by stamping the mug and pumpkin from the Hug in a Mug stamp set on white cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. By the way make sure you head over to the AJVD blog for a chance to win the Hug in a Mug stamp set. It is a 6x8 stamp set full of great images and sentiments! I then colored the mug with Copic markers in a green somewhat similar to the green from that well known purveyor of all things coffee! The stripe on the mug and the pumpkin were colored with Copic markers in a bright pumpkin yellow/orange color. The leaves were colored with a mix of the yellow/orange colors and red and brown. Once I was done coloring I die cut the images with the matching dies. I then colored the edges of the images with a black ink pen to get rid of the white outline. I adhered the pumpkin to the center of the mug. I die cut some bright orange paper with a subtle circle pattern on it with the largest Stitched Dot rectangle die and then some off white cardstock with the new Mini Hearts cover plate die and adhered the two together using Just Glue It adhesive. I die cut the strip from kraft cardstock using the largest die from the Sentiment Strip 2.0 die set and stamped it with the sentiment I adhered the strip and the mug, then finished off the card with the steam piece I die cut from kraft cardstock.
