Fight Like A Girl-Coffee And Cards With Celeste And Deb

 

Debra and I decided to go pink this month in honor of Breast Cancer awareness month. Our wonderful friend, Michael Trent will be joining us as a special guest as well. For my card, I used A Muse Studio's Fight Like a Girl stamp set and stamped the ribbon in Stampin' UP's pretty in pink ink and fussy cut the image out. I layered light pink cardstock onto my white A2 card base leaving a small border around the edges. I then die cut a panel of white cardstock using Paper Roses stitched rectangle nesting dies. I created a circle mask and inked the highlighted panel on the card using more Stampin' UP pretty in pink ink. I stamped the sentiment from the same A Muse Studio stamp set using Versafine onyx black ink. I added some faux stitched lines using a Memento tuxedo black marker. I popped the ribbon up off of the card using mini foam dimensionals from Stampin' UP. Using a pink Copic marker, I colored the clear rhinestones from Recollections a nice shade of pink and added them to the card. Finally, I matted the panel onto dark pink cardstock and adhered the whole thing to my card with thin foam tape. This card is about as CAS as I get. LOL. 

 

My coffee this month is a lovely, iced pumpkin shaken espresso from my local Ziggi's coffee shop. This thing was amazing! Now, be sure to head on over to Deb and Michael's blogs to see how they were inspired this month.
